For this relief much thanks; 'tis bitter cold
And I am sick at heart.
- Hamlet (1.1.10), Francisco to Barnardo

"sick at heart" acts in concert with Marcellus's "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark" (1.4) to provide an account of a diseased country. Their comments set the gloomy mood of a neglected populace and substantiate Hamlet's suspicions about Claudius's corruption.
