What theme of the play Hamlet is apparent in these lines? Alexander was buried, Alexander returneth to dust; the dust is earth; of earth we make loam; and why of that loam whereto he was converted might they not stop a beer-barrel? Imperious Caesar, dead and turn'd to clay, Might stop a hole to keep the wind away.

The theme of the play Hamlet that is apparent in these lines is the fleeting passage of time.
He says that everyone must die at some point, that even great leaders such as Alexander, and Caesar are now dead.
