Yorick
Yorick was the court jester in William Shakespeare's play Hamlet. He was a funny man who made everyone laugh, including Prince Hamlet. Hamlet loved Yorick so much that he would often ride on his back.
After Yorick died, his skull was exhumed by the First Gravedigger. When Hamlet saw Yorick's skull, he was filled with sadness and regret. He remembered all the good times they had together, and he wished that Yorick was still alive.
Hamlet's speech about Yorick is one of the most famous in all of Shakespeare. It is a reminder that even the most beloved people will eventually die. It is also a reminder that we should cherish the time we have with our loved ones, because we never know when they will be taken from us.
