Question

Gentleman alas what shall I say?
My credit now stands on such slippery grounds
That one of two bad ways you must conceit me either a coward or a flatterer.

A. Why does the speakers credit stand on a slippery ground?
B. Why would they consider the speaker as a coward or a flatterer?

Answer 1

1. The speaker says that his credit lies on a weak ( slippery) ground because Caesar is dead and he knows full well that these conspirators are much more powerful at that moment.

2. They would consider the speaker as a coward or flaterrer because till Caesar was alive and powerful he was good friend of him but when he died the speaker tries to shake hands with the conspirators ( murderers of Caesar).

Hope it helps
