"Solid" has now been broadly accepted but a genuine debate exists. In the context of play and character, "sullied" makes much more sense. I'm off to watch the football now.
I fundamentally disagree, although I acknowledge where your assertion stems from, given the nature of Hamlet. However, the suicidal metaphor, allied to the juxtaposition of the verbs "melt" and "thaw" would, I suggest, render the use of "solid" entirely appropriate in my opinion.
