Question No: 1
Caesar
[To The Soothsayer] The Ides Of March Are Come.
Soothsayer
Ay, Caesar, But Not Gone.
Artemidorus
Hail, Caesar! Read This Schedule.
Decius
Trebonius Doth Desire You To O’er-Read, At Your Best Leisure, This His Humble Suit.
(I) Where Does This Conversation Take Place? Why Did Caesar Tell The
Soothsayer “The Ides Of March Are Come”? When Had He Met The
Soothsayer Before?
Answer :- This Conversation Takes Place Outside The Capitol, Just Before Caesar Enters The
Senate House. Caesar Tells The Soothsayer “The Ides Of March Are Come” To Imply That The
Day Of March 15th, The Day He Was Warned About, Has Arrived. He Had Previously Met The
Soothsayer On The Ides Of March When He Was Warned To Beware The Day.
(II) Who Is Artemidorus? Whom Does He Represent In The Play? What Is The
Importance Of His “Schedule”?
Answer :- Artemidorus Is A Well-Wisher Of Caesar, Representing The Common Citizens Who
Wish To Warn Caesar About The Conspiracy Against Him. The Importance Of His “Schedule”
Lies In The Fact That It Contains A Warning About The Impending Danger To Caesar’s Life,
Listing The Names Of The Conspirators.
(III) Why Does Artemidorus Request Caesar To Read His “Schedule” First? With
Reference To A Previous Scene, Show How Artemidorus’ Fears Are
Justified.
Answer :- Artemidorus Requests Caesar To Read His “Schedule” First Because It Contains
Crucial Information About The Conspiracy Against Caesar, Aimed At Saving His Life. In A
Previous Scene, Artemidorus Had Written A Letter To Caesar, Warning Him About The
Conspiracy And Urging Him To Read It For His Own Safety. This Shows That Artemidorus’
Fears Are Justified Because He Knows That Caesar’s Life Is In Danger
(IV) Mention The Two Reasons Given By Caesar For Not Reading The “Schedule” Handed
Over By Artemidorus. Which Trait Of His Personality Is Revealed By His Act?
Answer:- Caesar Gives Two Reasons For Not Reading Artemidorus’ “Schedule” First: Firstly,
He Is Surrounded By Other Suitors Presenting Their Petitions, And Secondly, He Says He Will
Read Artemidorus’ Schedule Later. This Reveals Caesar’s Arrogance And Lack Of Concern For
His Own Safety, As He Prioritizes The Petitions Of Others Over A Warning About His Life.
(V) Name Two People In The Scene Who Are Trying To Warn Caesar. Name Two Other
People Who Defeat Their Efforts To Do So. Which Theme Of The Play Is Highlighted
Here? Explain It Briefly.
Answer:- The Two People Trying To Warn Caesar Are The Soothsayer And Artemidorus.
However, Their Efforts Are Defeated By Decius And Trebonius, Who Divert Caesar’s Attention
Away From The Warnings And Present Him With Other Petitions. This Highlights The Theme
Of Fate Versus Free Will, As Caesar’s Fate Seems Predetermined By The Conspiracy Despite
The Attempts Of Others To Warn Him And Alter His Course Of Action.

For, Look, He Smiles, And Caesar Doth Not Change
(I) “If This Be Known-What Does This” Refer To? If It Would Be Known
What Could Happen?
Answer :- “If This Be Known” Refers To The Plot Or Conspiracy Against Caesar. If Their Plan
Is Discovered, Cassius Fears That Either He Or Caesar Will Not Have A Chance To Turn Back,
Implying That They Will Be Committed To Their Respective Courses Of Action.

(II) What Duty Is Assigned To Casca? Why Should He Be “Sudden”?

Answer :- Casca Is Assigned The Duty To Act Quickly And Decisively Because Cassius Fears
That If Their Plan Is Discovered Or If Caesar Becomes Aware Of Their Intentions, They May
Face Interference Or Prevention.
(III) What Has Popilius Lena Said And Done Which Makes Cassius To Fear?
What Did They Think That Lena Was Saying? How Does Brutus Show Them
That There Is Nothing To Fear?
Answer :- Popilius Lena’s Smile And Demeanor Cause Cassius To Fear That He Knows About
Their Plot And Supports Caesar. They Interpret Lena’s Behavior As Indicating That He Is
Discussing Their Conspiracy With Caesar. However, Brutus Interprets Lena’s Smile Differently,
Suggesting That Lena’s Intentions Are Not Hostile Toward Them. Brutus Points Out That Lena’s
Demeanor Remains Unchanged, Indicating That He Is Not Reacting Negatively To Their
Conversation.

(IV) What Was The Task Assigned To Trebonius? What Petition Did Metellus
Cimber Present To Caesar? In What Way Did He Flatter Caesar?
Answer:- Trebonius Is Assigned The Task Of Diverting Mark Antony’s Attention Away From
Caesar During The Assassination. Metellus Cimber Presents A Petition To Caesar, Requesting
The Repeal Of His Brother’s Banishment. He Flatters Caesar By Kneeling Before Him And
Demonstrating Humility, Implying That Granting The Petition Would Enhance Caesar’s
Reputation For Generosity And Magnanimity.

(V) Give Two Of The Arguments Given By Caesar To Reject The Petition
Made Bry Metellus. Which Trait Of Caesar’s Character Is Highlighted In
These Arguments?
Answer:- Two Arguments Given By Caesar To Reject Metellus Cimber’s Petition Are That He
Will Not Change His Decision For Personal Reasons Or Under Emotional Pressure, And That He
Will Remain Steadfast In His Convictions, Likening Himself To The “Northern Star” In His
Unwavering Resolve. These Arguments Highlight Caesar’s Pride And Inflexibility.His
Stubbornness Serves To Heighten The Tension And Conflict In The Play, As It Sets Him On A
Collision Course With The Conspirators And Ultimately Leads To His Downfall.
Question No: 3
Caesar
But I Am Constant As The Northern Star,
Of Whose True-Fixd And Resting Quality
There Is No Fellow In The Firmament
The Skies Are Painted With Unnumberd Sparks
They Are All Fire And Every One Doth Shine.
But There’s But One In All Doth Hold His Place
So In The World; Tis Furnishd Well With Men,
I) What Is The “Northern Star”? Give The Meaning Of: “Of Whose True-Fix’d And
Resting Quality/ There Is No Fellow In The Firmament.”
Answer :- The “Northern Star” Refers To The North Star, Also Known As Polaris, Which Is A
Fixed Point In The Night Sky Used For Navigation. The Phrase “Of Whose True-Fix’d And
Resting Quality/ There Is No Fellow In The Firmament” Means That The North Star Is Unique
And Unparalleled In Its Stability And Steadfastness Among All The Other Stars In The Sky.
(II) Why Does Caesar Compare Himself To The Northern Star? What Is The Occasion For
Such A Comparison?
Answer :- Caesar Compares Himself To The Northern Star To Emphasize His Steadfastness And
Unwavering Nature. The Occasion For Such A Comparison Is Caesar’s Refusal To Yield To The
Pleas Of The Conspirators And His Insistence On Maintaining His Position Of Power And
Authority.
(III) State The Comparison Made By Caesar Between The Firmament And The World Of
Men ?
Answer :- Caesar Compares The Firmament, Or The Sky Filled With Stars, To The World Of
Men By Highlighting The Vast Diversity And Multitude Of Individuals In The World, Similar
To The Countless Stars In The Sky. However, He Asserts That Just As There Is Only One North
Star That Holds Its Position Amidst The Multitude Of Stars, There Is Only One Individual Who
Stands Out And Holds His Place Amidst The Vast Array Of People In The World.
(IV) Why Is Caesar So Stubbom In His Attitude Towards The Conspirator ?
What Purpose Does His Stubbornness Serve On The Dramatic Effectiveness?
Answer:- Caesar Is Stubborn In His Attitude Towards The Conspirators Because He Believes In
His Own Invincibility And Divine Right To Rule. His Stubbornness Serves To Heighten The
Tension And Conflict In The Play, As It Sets Him On A Collision Course With The Conspirators
And Ultimately Leads To His Downfall.
(V) What Horrible Event Is About To Take Place In A Short Time? Who Was The First To
Strike? Why Is Antony Absent From The Scene? What Could Have Happened If Antony
Were To Be Present On The Scene?
Answer:- The Horrible Event About To Take Place Is Caesar’s Assassination. The First To Strike
Is Casca. Antony Is Absent From The Scene Because He Has Been Intentionally Kept Away By
Brutus And The Conspirators, Who Fear His Influence And Potential To Incite A Rebellion
Among The People. If Antony Were Present On The Scene, The Situation Could Have Escalated
Into Further Violence And Chaos, As Antony Was A Loyal Supporter Of Caesar And Would
Likely Seek Revenge For His Death

Responsible For. According To The Extract, What Do Men Know And What Do Men Know

This Context, The Fates Represent The Inevitability Of Death. Men Know That They Will
Eventually Die, But They Fear The Uncertainty Of When That Will Happen.
(III) What Positive Note Does Casca Strike In The Death Of Caesar? What Does Brutus
Feel About It?
Answer :-Casca Strikes A Positive Note By Suggesting That By Killing Caesar, They Have
Effectively Removed The Fear Of Death That Caesar’s Rule May Have Imposed On Them.
However, Brutus Seems To View This Differently, Perhaps Reflecting On The Moral And
Ethical Implications Of Their Actions.
(IV) After The Extract, What Does Brutus Ask The Romans To Do? In What Way Does
This Seem To Be A Fulfilment Of Calpurnia’s Dream?
Answer:-After The Extract, Brutus Asks The Romans To Understand Their Motives And
Intentions, Indicating That Their Actions Were Not Driven By Personal Gain Or Ambition But
By A Sense Of Duty To Rome. This Can Be Seen As A Fulfillment Of Calpurnia’s Dream,

Of Rome.

Julius Caesar.

Exactly Does He Mean? Who Had Just Suggested Washing?
Answer :-Cassius Is Speaking To Brutus, And He Is Metaphorically Suggesting That They
Should Humble Themselves And Cleanse Themselves Of Their Guilt Or Sins. The Suggestion
To Wash Was Just Made By Brutus.
(II) Explain The Meaning Of “States Unborn”, “Accents” And “Pompeys Basis.”
Answer :-
 “States Unborn” Refers To Future Nations Or Governments That Have Not Yet Come
Into Existence.
 “Accents” Refers To Different Languages Or Dialects Spoken By People In The Future.
 “Pompey’s Basis” Likely Refers To The Pedestal Or Foundation Upon Which Pompey’s
Statue Stood, Symbolizing His Power And Influence.

Becoming A Trivialized Spectacle, Suggesting That Caesar’s Blood Might Be Shed Casually
And Without Significance.

Answer:- Cassius Believes That They Will Be Remembered As Heroes Who Liberated Their
Country From Tyranny, Hence The Reference To “The Knot Of Us” Being Called “The Men

(V) The Entry Of The Servant Of Antony May Be Said To Mark The Turning Point Of
The Whole Play. Narrate, Very Briefly, In What Way This Is So.
Answer:- The Entry Of Antony’s Servant Marks The Turning Point Because It Sets The Stage
For Antony’s Reaction To Caesar’s Assassination, Which Ultimately Leads To The Downfall Of
Brutus And The Other Conspirators. Antony’s Speech At Caesar’s Funeral Incites The Roman
Citizens Against The Conspirators And Ignites A Civil War.
Question No: 6
Antony
O Mighty Caesar! Dost Thou Lie So Low?
Are All Thy Conquests, Glories, Triumphs, Spoils,
Shrunk To This Little Measure? Fare Thee Well.
I Know Not, Gentlemen, What You Intend,
Who Else Must Be Let Blood, Who Else Is Rank:
If I Myself, There Is No Hour So Fit
As Caesar’s Death’s Hour; Nor No Instrument
Of Half That Worth As Those Your Swords, Made Rich
With The Most Noble Blood Of All This World.
(I) Where Does The Mighty Caesar Lie? What Is Meant By “This Little Measure”? Give
One Example Each Of Caesar’s Conquests And His Glories.
Answer :-Caesar Lies Low On The Ground, Having Been Assassinated. “This Little Measure”

(III) Give The Meaning Of: “Who Else Must Be Let Blood, Who Else Is Ran) – What In
Your Opinion, Is Antony’s Reason For Saying So?
Answer :- “Who Else Must Be Let Blood, Who Else Is Rank” Means Who Else Must Be Killed,
Who Else Deserves To Die. Antony’s Reason For Saying This May Be To Assert His
Commitment To Avenging Caesar’s Death And To Seek Clarity On The Conspirators’
Intentions.
(IV) What Does Antony’s Expression, “The Most Noble Blood Of All This World Indicate
About Antony’s Feelings For Caesar?
Answer:-Antony’s Expression “The Most Noble Blood Of All This World” Indicates His Deep
Admiration And Reverence For Caesar. He Sees Caesar’s Blood As The Most Honorable And
Significant In The World, Reflecting His Profound Loyalty And Emotional Attachment To
Caesar.
(V) What Did Brutus Tell Antony About The Conspirator’s Feelings For Caesar? Was
Brutus Honest? Why?
Answer:- Brutus Had Told Antony That The Conspirators Killed Caesar Not Because They
Hated Him, But Because They Loved Rome More. However, This Statement Is Not Entirely
Honest, As The Conspirators Had Personal Grievances And Fears About Caesar’s Growing
Power. They Perceived Him As A Threat To The Roman Republic And Sought To Eliminate
Him To Preserve Their Own Interests. Antony Likely Recognizes The Insincerity In Brutus’s
Words, Which Contributes To His Resolve To Avenge Caesar’s Death.
Question No: 7

Them. The Consequence Of This Mistake Was That Antony’s Speech Incited The Crowd To
Riot, Leading To Chaos And Eventually Civil War.
(V) “How Did Antony Prove That He Could Be Both A Coward And A Flatterer?

Animal Is Driven To A Bay Or Corner By The Hunting Dogs.
(II) Explain The Double Meaning Intended In The Expression, “Brave Hart.”

To Julius Caesar As A Courageous Leader (“Brave”) And To Caesar As A Deer (“Hart”), Echoing
The Imagery Of The Hunted Deer Mentioned Earlier In The Passage.
(III) Who Are The Hunters In The Present Crisis? Give The Meaning Of: “Sign’d Thy
Spoil, And Crimson’d In Thy Lethe.”
Answer :- The “Hunters” In The Present Crisis Are The Conspirators Who Have Assassinated

Have Marked Caesar’s Body As Their Trophy, And It Is Now Covered In His Own Blood,
Signifying His Death.

The Heart Of Thee”?

With Carrion Men, Groaning For Burial.
(I) Why Is Caesar’s Spirit “Raging For Revenge”? When And To Whom Does Caesar’s
Spirit Appear Later In The Play?
Answer :-Caesar’s Spirit Is “Raging For Revenge” Because He Has Been Assassinated By The
Conspirators, And His Spirit Seeks Vengeance For His Murder. Later In The Play, Caesar’s
Spirit Appears To Brutus In Act 5, Scene 5.
(II) Who Is Ate? Why Is Her Name Used In The Context? What Is Meant By “Confines”?
 Answer :- Ate Is The Goddess Of Delusion, Mischief, And Ruin In Greek Mythology. Her Name
Is Used In This Context To Emphasize The Destructive And Chaotic Nature Of Caesar’s
Revenge. “Confines” Refers To The Boundaries Or Limits Of A Place.
(III) “With A Monarch’s Voice Cry “Havoc!” — This Indicates Absolute And
Authoritative Royal Command For Destruction. What Does The Expression Foretell About
The Things To Come?

Other Occasions In The Play Where A Different Aspect Of His Character Is Shown—
Distinct From The One Shown In This Extract.

Ability To Manipulate Public Opinion Through His Speeches. However, In Other Parts Of The
Play, Antony Exhibits Traits Such As Loyalty To Caesar, Cunning, And A Capacity For
Vengeance, Particularly In His Actions Following Caesar’s Death And During The Civil War
Against The Conspirators.
