approaching caesar’s murder. One of the watchman also saw some things at
the time of night. He saw a that a lioness had given birth to little cubs in the
street, graves yawned, fiery warriors fought on the cloud and their was a rain
comprising of blood upon the whole capital. He had also heard ghosts
shrieking and squealing about the streets. By the pleading cause of
Calpurnia, Caesar had made his mood not o go to the senate. In the
meanwhile Brutus arrives with a plan to fetch Brutus so that he can be killed,
Caesar told him the dream of Calpurnia ( caesar’s statue with hundreds of
opening fro which blood was coming out as fountains and Romans were
washing hands in it) and said that he will not come for this reason. Brutus
cleverly interprets the dream and motivates Caesar to come to the
senate.
Caesar makes his mind to go to the senate and with his gown he moves
away towards the capital saying that cowards face death many times but
brave men like him face it only once.

all and has tea.
After they arrive in the senate house, first Caesar. Mettelus
Cimber and Brutus plead Caesar to grant permission to Publius
Cimber for return, who had been banished from Rome. Caesar
refuses to change his mind. Now as planned Casca stabs Caesar
first and finally Brutus at last stabs Caesar. Caesar’s heart
bursts and dies saying – “Et tu Brute?”
Mark Antony enters and sees Caesar’s corpse, Brutus tells
him that he killed Julius Caesar because of their love and
sympathy for the Romans. Antony now asks Brutus to grant
permission , believing that he will speak in favor of them.

10. Brutus and Cassius enter the crowd and standing on the pulpit. Brutus
addresses the crowd. He tries to justify his act of killing Caesar, he says that he
killed Caesar because he loved Rome more. His love for Rome outweighed the
love for Caesar.
Antony enters with Caesar’s dead body and opens his oration, acknowledging
the Romans against the Brutus and company. He delivers his speech in a
derogatory manner calling Caesar ambitious and all the same calling Brutus an
honourable man. He then finally says that Caesar loved Romans a lot and would
have never been a tyrant ruler.
The citizens are mentally moved by the oration of Antony. He reads out
Caesar’s will and the citizens of Rome demand the death of conspirators of
Caesar and become enraged. They swear to take revenge against the
murderers and finally Cassius and Brutus after being defeated commit
