Yorick was the jester in the royal household when Hamlet was a kid. Hamlet remembers him telling jokes and playing piggy-back with him. Yorick died many years ago, and the gravedigger, while digging a grave for Ophelia, finds Yorick's skull in the earth and presents it to Hamlet, telling him "This, sir, was Yorick's skull, the king's jester." Hamlet remarks to his friend Horatio who is standing by, "Alas! poor Yorick. I knew him, Horatio, a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy. He hath borne me on his back a thousand times and now how abhorrent in my imagination it is. My gorge rises at it. Where be your jibes now? Your songs? Your flashes of merriment that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now, to mock your own grinning--quite chapfallen."
