Hamlet 2.2 Language: Fortune

The transcript discusses the fluctuating favor and disfavor of a woman, as perceived by Guildenstern and Rosencrantz. They express their moderate status, neither highly favored nor completely disregarded. Hamlet makes a bawdy joke about their position, suggesting they are in the middle of her favor. Guildenstein extends the joke with a pun, indicating they are private citizens receiving average favor, with a double entendre about being in her private parts.
