And the more pity that great folk should have countenance in this world to drown or hang themselves more than their even Christian.
Act V, Scene 1
Context
The First Clown responds by remarking that aristocrats are permitted to commit suicide with less consequence than commoners, despite Christian teaching that all souls are equal.
Analysis
'Countenance' here means both permission and reputation—great folk are allowed to keep face even in death. The phrase 'their even Christian' (their equal Christian, their fellow believer) is grammatically blunt, the adjective 'even' hammering home a supposed equality the rest of the sentence dismantles. The gravedigger lists 'drown or hang' with the casual specificity of someone who has buried the results, turning abstract hypocrisy into a catalogue of bodies.
Essay Tip
Use this to argue that class critique in Hamlet comes most sharply from those who handle the literal consequences—the gravedigger doesn't theorize about injustice, he simply notes whose bodies he buries in holy ground and whose he doesn't.
