With a bare BODKIN? Who would FARDELS bear,To grunt and sweat under a weary life But that the dread of something after death.." ?.

Setting aside bodkin and fardels Shakespeare concludes that no matter how awful life is the unknown (death) is awfuller.

"And makes us rather bear those ills we have,
Than fly to others that we know not of?"

Do you agree that the Devil you know is preferable to the Devil you don't?
