Answer:

A). The blood motif suggests that revenge will lead to violence and death.

Step-by-step explanation:

A motif is demonstrated as the persisting or dominant idea, action, or image that carries a symbolic significance and contributes to advancing the theme of the literary work.

In the given excerpt from Act V, Scene I, of Julius Caesar (('OCTAVIOUS....sweat'), the image or idea that is being repeated would be 'blood motif' that implies that this vengeance corresponds to violence and bloodshed in the plot that relates to one of the most important themes of the play. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
