Answer 2

Answer: It introduces opposition to Caesar.

Explanation:

Julius Caesar is Shakespeare's famous play about jealous people that conspire against Caesar and eventually kill him.

At the beginning of the play, the crowd has gathered to celebrate Caesar's triumph. The commoners are happy to welcome Caesar when he returns from the war, as opposed to Flavius and Marullus, who plot against him. They scold the crowd and tell people to go home.

In this excerpt, Flavius tells Marullus to go to the Capitol, and undress any statues that are decorated in Caesar's honor. This is the very beginning of the plot against Caesar. Flavius and Marullus have realized that Caesar has people's support, which motivates them to stop him from becoming even more powerful.
