WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: Hamlet

Read the extract and answer the question

Your leave and favour to return to France;
From whence though willingly I came to Denmark,
To show my duty in your coronation.
Yet now, I must confess, that duty done.
My thoughts and wishes bend again toward France
And bow them to your gracious leave and pardon.
(Act 1, Scene two, Lines 51 -57)
