Hamlet uses juxtaposition to contrast several things. To start, he contrasts the dew he wishes to become like, something that is entirely temporary and could disappear in a matter of minutes, with permanent flesh, something that he cannot escape so easily. He compares his mother to a beast, the latter of which would apparently mourn a death longer than she had, which shows the start of his disgust toward women. He then contrasts his father and Claudius by comparing the former to Hyperion (which represents light and regality) and a satyr, a lustful mix between a horse and man. This develops his general disgust toward his uncle, whom he considers so lustful and indulgent. He finally says that Claudius is no more like his father than Hamlet is
