Answer 2

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer: a position of power

Explanation:

The question refers to "Julius Caesar," by William Shakespeare. The crown is a recurring symbol in Shakespeare's plays, often connected to the idea of power, like in this case.

In the first act, Scene II,  Casca describes to Cassius and Brutus how Caesar refused the crown offered to him by Antony in a public ceremony.

In the context of this scene, we can infer that Caesar most likely refuses the crown as a symbol of power because he realizes that accepting the crown might upset the senators who hold the political power in Rome.
