(1) Cinna: O Caesar
Caesar: Hence! Wilt thou lift up Olympus?
Decius: Great Caesar-
Caesar: Doth not Brutus bootless kneel?
Casca: Speak hands for me! [They stab Caesar]
Caesar: Et tu Brute? Then fall Caesar! [He dies]
Cinna: Liberty! Freedom! Tyranny is dead! Run hence, proclaim, cry it about the streets.
Cassius: Some to the common pulpits, and cry out, 'Liberty, freedom, and enfranchisement'.
Brutus: People and senators, be not affrighted. Fly not; stand still; ambition's debt is paid.
(2)This passage is significant because it is the point we have all been waiting for, Caesar's assassination which was accomplished by his "friends".
(3)Why did Brutus kneel for Caesars death?
What did Caesars "friends" believe they had accomplished by killing him?
