My thesis statements:

Scansion:
Shakespeare employs a variety of metrical and poetic devices to forward these aims and to suggest that Hamlet is indeed speaking to an audience. Hamlet's speech is not internalized--rather his monologue is characterized by a universalized rhetoric, with scattered points directed towards his auditors. These aims are both accomplished through metrical aberrations in his speech.

Poetry:
Essentially, she reverses his point on human indifference to suffering through subverting his language, allusions, and tone to suggest that human empathy, particularly love, can be more powerful.

OED:
Yeats’ use of the word brute then works on multiple levels—thematically, structurally, and allusively, to promote the idea that the animalistic nature in humans will continue to promulgate violence throughout history.
