    Horatio (Hamlet)

    Horatio is a character in William Shakespeare's tragedy Hamlet. Horatio's origins are unknown, although he was present on the battlefield when Hamlet's father defeated 'the ambitious Norway',Fortinbras (the king), and attended Wittenberg university with prince Hamlet. Horatio is evidently not directly involved in the intrigue at the Danish court; thus, he makes a good foil or sounding board for Prince Hamlet. He is often not identified as any specific court position, but simply as "friend to Hamlet."

    Role in Play

    Horatio makes his first appearance in act one, scene one, when he, Bernardo, Marcellus and Francisco encounter the ghost of the deceased King Hamlet. He, having attended a university, is called upon as a scholar and is told to communicate with the ghost by Marcellus, and unsuccessfully attempts to do so. It is he who then explains the conditions surrounding King Hamlet's death. Later, in act two, Horatio is revealed to be Hamlet's most trusted friend, to whom Hamlet reveals all his plans. Horatio swears himself to secrecy about the ghost and Hamlet's pretense of madness, and conspires with Hamlet to prove Claudius' guilt through the traveling players production of The Murder of Gonzago. He is also the first to know of Hamlet's return from England, and is with him when he learns of Ophelia's death.

    Horatio (crater)

    Horatio is a feature on Earth's Moon, a crater in Taurus-Littrow valley. Astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt drove along its south rim in 1972, on the Apollo 17 mission, but did not stop.

    The larger Camelot crater is to the northeast. Geology Station 5 is along the south rim of Camelot. Victory is to the northwest, and Brontë is to the southwest.

    The crater was named by the astronauts after the fictional Horatio Hornblower from the works of C. S. Forester.

    Summers Lost

    by: Hurt

    Lie to me say you were wrong
    Like you have too many times
    And I'll believe it's not my fault
    Like i have too much time
    So hear me now boy
    Stay alive 'cause that's the way it should go
    Would your maker have opened your eyes
    If he'd preferred them closed?
    To feel the weight of summers lost
    I'd love to have you here
    And all the times we've ever crossed
    It was just to keep you here
    To try to be something you are not
    Like i have for you and promised too
    I know we'll get through this and won't
    Let you do it, so stop!
    And make believe that i'm not wrong
    'cause if i was
    We'd all be gone!
    Nights without end seem to bleed into days
    Try to forget that it turned out this way
    I wear the mark of the permanent stain
    Not accidentally, i cursed god's good name
    I am still mortified yet believed in a way
    That when my days are done
    We'll be in the same plane
    With winters mean brimstone i set sail for Euphrates
    All I can say is it's a god damned shame
    Just to feel the pain of summer's loss i'd love to have new years
    And all the times i've missed my loss
    It's just to keep you
    Just to keep you
