[BRUTUS.] But this same day Must end that work the ides of March begun; And whether we shall meet again I know not. Therefore ou

r everlasting farewell take. Forever and forever farewell, Cassius. If we do meet again, why, we shall smile. If not, why then, this parting was well made.

Answer:

The correct option is C) It would remove the foreboding tone that suggests their possible deaths.

Explanation:

Although synonyms are words which have the same meaning but sometimes using a synonym can change the entire meaning of a sentence or context. Like in the above passage, the word everlasting, is of importance as it shows that these are the final vows being made by the conspirators. Using a synonym instead of this word will lose the forever bonding value of the passage.
