Read the excerpt from Hamlet, Act I, Scene i. Marcellus: Is it not like the king? Horatio: As thou art to thyself: Such was the very armour he had on When he the ambitious Norway combated; So frown'd he once, when, in an angry parle, He smote the sledded Polacks on the ice. 'Tis strange. Marcellus: Thus twice before, and jump at this dead hour, With martial stalk hath he gone by our watch. Horatio: In what particular thought to work I know not; But in the gross and scope of my opinion, This bodes some strange eruption to our state. What do Marcellus's and Horatio's characterization of the ghost imply?

    These men are discussing how the ghost they see looks exactly like the King had when he was alive. He was dressed in the same armor that he had worn when he had killed Norway's king. This implication is important because Horatio is very well educated an far less likely to believe in ghosts.
