Answer 2

B. Caesar's stab wounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" depicts the moral dilemma of Brutus who loved his friend and King Caesar but still killed him.

Antony had offered the throne to Caesar which Brutus thinks Caesar will definitely take. But with the new found power, he also thinks that it will be the ruin of everyone, including Caesar himself. So, he along with Cassius conspired to kill him before he takes the crown. After Brutus and Cassius had killed Caesar, Antony showed the stab wounds of Caesar to the people. This made them angry which, they should rightly be. Brutus loved the king but still participated in the murder for he thinks that more power will ruin Caesar. His love for the nation far exceeds his love for the ruler, like he had rightly said so to the people, "not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more." (Act 3 scene II)
