"Versus" means against. Your question (which is not a question or sentence of any kind) suggests that possibly Hamlet was fighting against his inability to decide. If he could decide to fight against it, it looks like he was able to decide after all.

∙ 11y agoHamlet decides to take revenge on his father god that's easy and totally wrong. Hamlet couldn't take revenge on his father because he was already dead, and he wouldn't even if he were alive. It's his uncle he wants to take revenge on, but not until Act 1 Scene 5. At the end of Act 1 Scene 2, he's just heard from Horatio that a ghost has been spotted on the battlements, and Hamlet resolves to go up to the battlements that very night and find out what's going on.

Why does Hamlet decide not to kill Claudius after the traveling player's play?
Hamlet finds Claudius praying for forgiveness after the play. He decides that if he were to kill Claudius at that moment, Claudius would go to heaven rather than to hell. Hamlet decides to wait until he finds Claudius sinning, in order to kill him.
Is Hamlet waiting for the right moment or procrastinating?
You could argue either.In the scene when Hamlet attempts to kill Claudius but decides against it is the most significant for this question (So I will be referring to it.) The cause could arguably be 3 things: Hamlet's fear, Hamlet's scheming, or Hamlet's procrastination.Scheming - Hamlet himself says he would rather kill Claudius when he is 'drunk, asleep or in his rage, or in th'incestuous pleasure of his bed' - as Claudius is praying in thie scene, Hamlet could be rationally thinking when it may be better to kill him, in order to send him straight to hell.Procrastintion - As Hamlet's hamartia (tragic flaw) is his lack of action, the reason for him not killing Claudius in this scene could indeed be Hamlet's procrastination, or 'overthinking' of the situation at hand - if another Shakesperian hero such as Macbeth was placed in the same position as Hamlet, the whole play would be complete in one scene. Instead, Hamlet overanalyses the situation before doubting himself.Fear - it could be argued that Hamlet doesn't kill Claudius for fear of what may happen afterwards; most importantly, the throne Hamlet must take. This could be an underlying cause of Hamlet's procrastination.What is obvoius in this scene however is that it is a turning point in the play. If Hamlet had killed Claudius here, Gertrude wouldn't have died, nor Laertes, Ohelia or himself. This proves that Hamlet's lack of action does eventually lead to his downfall.As Shakespeare does not map out to the audience what is the real cause of Hamlet's lack of action, the reader/viewer must decide for themselves.
What does the ghost tell Hamlet in Gertrude's room?
The ghost tells Hamlet to lay off his mother and get on with the revenge against Claudius. This echoes his command in Act 1 "nor let thy soul contrive against thy mother aught." Some productions imply that the ghost is not real in this appearance, but only a figment of Hamlet's overwrought mind, as everybody could see the ghost at the beginning of the play.
Which is larger-lot or parcel as a unit of land?
