Answer:

He brought with him the dagger that was used to murder Caesar to Caesar's funeral. Marc Antony's funeral oration is marked by his use of reverse psychology as he announces the opposite of his intentions in his speech to the Romans. In this way, he effectively achieves his goal of pointing to the ambitions not of Caesar, but of the conspirators, thus rousing the plebeians to riot and civil war.

Step-by-step explanation:

He brought to the funeral the dagger that was used to murder Caesar. Mark Antony used reverse psychology calling Brutus an honorable man ironically.
