INDEX: Emmaus in Hamlet's Graveyard (and a Venice Courtroom)

At some point in my work on Hamlet, I realized that in the graveyard scene, instead of two disciples, it's two Danes, and instead of being on the road to Emmaus, they're on the road to Elsinore. Something similar occurs in the courtroom scene of The Merchant of Venice. The Jonah echo in Hamlet's sea voyage overlaps a bit, as the retelling of the sea journey is delayed until after the graveyard scene, making Jonah and Emmaus overlap in this retelling.
