Hamlet is seen as being indecisive throughout the first three acts of the play. Which of these lines from acts IV and V show that Hamlet is finally focusing on revenge?

HAMLET: ...
Of thinking too precisely on the event—
A thought which quarter'd hath but one part wisdom
And ever three parts coward—I do not know
(Hamlet, act IV, scene IV)

Which is not tomb enough and continent
To hide the slain?—O, from this time forth,
My thoughts be bloody, or be nothing worth!
(Hamlet, act IV, scene IV)

Our indiscretion sometime serves us well
When our deep plots do pall and that should teach us
(Hamlet, act V, scene II)

Without debatement further, more or less,
He should the bearers put to sudden death,
(Hamlet, act V, scene II)
