What is due to us (4)

But there is more to it than Hamlet's sensibilities of course. His feeling that something is wrong is soon vindicated and amplified by evidence that his father was murdered. Mrs. Dashwood's sense that her daughter in law is more than insensitive is also soon confirmed.

Hamlet is driven by a sense that more is due to his father. Mrs. Dashwood is driven by a sense that more is due to her daughters.
