Hello mate here is your answer ✌️

1. Antony says the lines when he becomes successful in engaging the crowd to mutiny against the conspirators. He believes that now the conspirators will be done for and Caesar's soul will rest in peace as his revenge will be taken for sure. He says that now his trick against the conspirators has begun and it can take any path it wants towards destruction. This line shows how clever, witty, cunning and meticulous Antony is.

2. Antony says this when he is alone with Caesar's body. He is fuming with rage but is helpless in front of the powerful and United conspirators. He prophesied that the crimes of war, murders, killings and destruction will become common and frightful objects such as daggers and knives will be familiar in sight. Mothers shall be happy when they see their infants killed in war crimes, which is very unusual. Hence these lines signify that unusual and strange happenings will surround Rome and destroy it..

The lines may literally mean~

Now let it work. Mischief you are astir, do what you intend.

Antony is very satisfied with the reaction of the people. He had instigated the entire mass of the city of Rome to take revenge and now wanted the course of events and actions to happen on their own. He watches the outraged public to react in a violent way towards the conspirators who killed Julius Caesar.

Antony's speech undermines the conspirators even while it appears deferential to them. He manages to turn the mob against the conspirators. Antony uses many rhetorical questions to persuade the people to go against the conspirators and support him and Caesar's goals. This entire speech won over the crowd and turned them against the conspirators. When Antony delivered this speech, his words melted with those of Caesar's to rouse the masses against the injustice of the assassination.
