Horatio and Marcellus find Hamlet. Hamlet speaks to them in a roundabout way, and doesn't tell them what the Ghost said. Hamlet draws his sword, and asks them to swear on it that they won't reveal what has happened. The Ghost cries out, from the earth beneath their feet, for them to swear. Hamlet moves away, but the same thing happens three times. Hamlet then puts his sword away without allowing them to swear on it. Hamlet repeats that they must say nothing, and all exit. | Horatio and Marcellus find Hamlet. Hamlet speaks to them in a roundabout way, and doesn't tell them what the Ghost said.
