This is not a play, and should not be merged with the regular title rec for "Hamlet". Microsoft Word gives a word count of 6,113 words, i.e. a short story. The play itself is 31,901 words, which would make it a novelette, but Charles Lamb has done some substantial compression in the process of turning it into a "Tale".
