Question

CALPURNIA. Caesar, I never stood on ceremonies,

Yet now they fright me. There is one within,
Besides the things that we have heard and seen,15
Recounts most horrid sights seen by the watch.
A lioness hath whelpèd in the streets,
And graves have yawned, and yielded up their dead.
Fierce fiery warriors fight upon the clouds,
In ranks and squadrons and right form of war,20
Which drizzled blood upon the Capitol.
The noise of battle hurtled in the air,
Horses did neigh, and dying men did groan,
And ghosts did shriek and squeal about the streets.
O Caesar, these things are beyond all use,25
And I do fear them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagery, in a literary text, is an author's use of vivid and descriptive language to add depth to his work. The first language seems like a dialogue line, only, not a description. So does the last one. The others, though, are creative ways of describing something.
