The Clowns of Death

So in class, we discussed how the Clowns digging the burial in which Ophelia will be in is really ironic.  It's Ironic because clowns are hired to make you laugh, to make you happy, to have a great time, but we see that in this case they're doing the opposite. It also shows that what in the world are clowns doing in a graveyard? Of all the people that could've dug up the grave, clowns were sent to do it. It's not  normal for a clown to be in a graveyard digging up a grave at a time of grief and much sadness. What are they gonna do? Make the people laugh, tell jokes about Ophelia's death. Now that's just wrong.
