The correct answer is B) the death of Caesar.

The phrase "Beware the ides of Marc" foreshadows the death of Caesar.

We are referring to the famous expression in the play "Julius Caesar," written by William Shakespeare in 1601. It was the prophet's message to the future of Julius Caesar. It warned Julius of his death. It was Shakespeare who gave this "deathly" connotation to the date March 15, as part of the plot in the play.
