zepelin [54]

Answer:

Antony wants Caesar to forgive him for being nice to his conspirators.

Antony predicts that the land will be bloodied by men fighting men.

Antony expects Caesar's ghost to seek retribution for the wrongs done.

Explanation:

In the excerpt from Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar," Antony stands next to Caesar's body and asks him for forgiveness for talking politely to his murderers: "O pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth, That I am meek and gentle with these butchers!"

Then he foresees that a curse will fall, that there will be a terribly violent civil war, and that people will become evil and cruel:

"A curse shall light upon the limbs of men; Domestic fury and fierce civil strife Shall cumber all the parts of Italy; Blood and destruction shall be so in use, And dreadful objects so familiar, That mothers shall but smile when they behold Their infants quartered with the hands of war, All pity choked with custom of fell deeds (...)"

Finally, he refers to Caesar's ghost, who will come back for revenge:

I need help figuring out an exaggeration, loaded language, and parallelism

Sonja [21]

Exaggeration is the action of making statements that represent something as better or worse than it really is. so you would use this by saying that people exaggerate by making someone's name seem way worse than it actually is.

Loaded language or loaded words and phrases have strong emotional implications and involve strongly positive or negative reactions beyond their literal meaning. so you would use that bye people making fun of someone's names could strongly impact a person's life negatively.
