Mark Antony’s speech at Caesar’s funeral is a perfect masterpiece of
public oratory. He is pained to see the greatest conqueror of his times
reduced to that “bleeding piece of earth”. He calls the conspirators as
“butchers”. He forecasts death and destruction in Rome. There will be
riots and a civil war in Italy. Caesar’s spirit will wander for revenge.
Antony asks the people to make a ring around Caesar’s dead body. He
shows them the holes in Caesar’s cloak and wounds on his dead body. The
“most unkindest cut” was made by the dagger of Caesar’s angel, Brutus.
Then step by step, Antony tries to prove that Caesar was not at all
ambitious. He tells them how Caesar refused the crown everytime when it
was offered to him thrice. He could convince them that ‘honourable’
Brutus was actually, a liar and a murderer.
