Laertis says his farewell to his sister Ophelia.
He warns her on Hamlet's love for her. He states that Hamlet's passion will only be temporary as he holds obligations to royalty and that he will grow out of it. He advises her to not hold affection for him.
Polonius enters advises Laetris to grasp onto good friends, to not get into fights, to listen but not speak his own words too much, to not be boastful in appearance, and most importantly "to thine own self be true"
Polonius scolds Ophelia for giving her time to Hamlet but to instead be more wise and respect herself.
Ophelia responds in a way to defend Hamlet's love for her.
