Question

ANTONY: He was my friend, faithful and just to me: But Brutus says he was ambitious; And Brutus is an honourable man. He hath brought many captives home to Rome, Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill: Did this in Caesar seem ambitious? When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept: Ambition should be made of sterner stuff: Yet Brutus says he was ambitious; And Brutus is an honourable man. You all did see that on the Lupercal I thrice presented him a kingly crown, Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition? Yet Brutus says he was ambitious; And, sure, he is an honourable man. William Shakespeare, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar

C) To say that he trust Brutus and will support him

D) To argue that Caesar deserved to be murdered

Answer 1

Answer:the answer to your question is A).

Explanation:I know this because he kept calling Caesar ambitious, but how would ambition be a bad trait? Ambition is a character trait that is not a negative trait. Honor is a trait, which can come off as bad because some people take advantage of the honor people give him.
