Answer:

Cassius calls Caesar a god while describing how weak he was. Since we know that Caesar is not a god and that Cassius does not see Caesar as a god, it is a prime example of verbal irony. Cassius says one thing while we know something else to be true. Cassius's irony emphasizes the fact that Cesar was not a god.
