E is your answer. A sentence or assertion indicating that something is or is not the case is known as a statement, they are also called declarative or assertive sentences (a)

(a) Romeo was in love with Juliet.

Furthermore, a group of statements supporting each other is called an argument.

On the contrary, Merriam Webster dictionary defines premises as  "a statement or idea taken to be true and on which an argument or reasoning may be based".  An example of a premise would be (b)

(b) Felines are said to be suspicious of your intentions, cats are felines, therefore, they are also suspicious of your intentions.

Imperative sentences give commands, as shown in (c). They can end with a period or they may end in an exclamation point.

(c) Do your homework now!

Questions are used to find out information and always end with a question mark (?). Take for example (d)

(d) What is your name?

Finally, the predicate can be understood from the point of view of grammar or from the point of view of logic. Grammatically, the predicate is a clause telling something about the subject of the sentence (e)


(e) Yesterday, Mary walked the dog at six in the evening

Or else, it is something which is affirmed or denied with respect to an argument of a proposition.

O, he sits high in all the people’s hearts,
Elden [556K]

Answer:

These lines are spoken by Casca.

The lines are about Brutus.

The lines mean that whatever bad plans that Cassius and Casca had planned can be turned to their advantage by Brutus in front of the people. Even though the people will get mad and angry after the death of Caesar, Brutus can turn them to their side, like an alchemist can turn anything into gold.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar" revolves around the story of how Julius Caesar was murdered by his trusted aides. Moreover, the future of Rome was left at the hands of numerous 'hopefuls' like Cassius and Brutus and Antony and Octavius on the other, fighting to get the power to rule over Rome.

The given lines are taken from Act I scene iii of the play, spoken by Casca. The lines refer to Brutus, who, according to Casca, is capable of turning the people's hatred into love, acceptable even if it is the worse of all things.

Cassius and Casca were planning to get rid of Caesar and wanted to rope in Brutus, which Cassius reveals <em>"Three parts of him Is ours already"</em>. And the things that they planned, however brutal it may be, can be turned around in the people's mindsets by Brutus alone. Like Casca states,

<em>"that which would appear offense in us, </em>

<em>His countenance, like richest alchemy </em>

<em>Will change to virtue and to worthiness". </em>
