Answer 2

In this excerpt from Act II, Scene IV, of "Julius Caesar", by William Shakespeare, the conclusion that it best supports is Portia wants to take action, but she cannot. Portia, Brutus' wife, sees her husband is acting in a strange way. Before telling his plans, Brutus exits the house. She asks Lucius, Brutus' servant to go to the Capitol and see how Brutus looks, because he was unwell, and see what Caesar is doing.
