Queen Gertrude of Denmark was Hamlet's mother but I don't know how that fits in with the rest of the clue

In Act 1 Scene 5 the ghost does refer to Gertrude as such:-

Ay, that incestuous, that adulterate beast,
With witchcraft of his wit, with traitorous gifts—
O wicked wit and gifts, that have the power
So to seduce!—won to his shameful lust
The will of my most SEEMING-VIRTUOUS QUEEN:
O Hamlet, what a falling-off was there!
From me, whose love was of that dignity
That it went hand in hand even with the vow
I made to her in marriage, and to decline
Upon a wretch whose natural gifts were poor
To those of mine!
