The correct answer is B: Antony is upset about Caesar's death.

In his speech to the crowd, he grieves for Caesar and his numerous good deeds that will die with him. By providing examples of Caesar's magnanimous and humble nature, he negates Brutus' claims about Caesar's ambitions. With this moving yet cunning speech, Antony manipulates the people's sympathies, so that they might turn against the conspirators.
