Task 1

In act 1 scene 2 Cassius tries to manipulate Brutus into joining his side and to become enemies with Ceasar. Cassius knowing full well Brutus’ high status in Rome and how close he is to Ceasar tells him a story of how he once saved Caesar from a river when he almost drowned and saw him quiver and cry saying “Alas,” it cried, “give me some drink, Titinius,”
As a sick girl. Ye gods, it doth amaze me” he calls compares Caesar’s cries when he was sick to a small girl. Furthermore he want to persuade Brutus that  him and Brutus are no different than Caesar. And asks him questions such as: “Brutus and Caesar—what should be in that “Caesar”?
Why should that name be sounded more than yours?” He wants Brutus to realise that it can be possible to do something about Caesar and want to build courage and determination in Brutus. “Sound them, it doth become the mouth as well.
Weigh them, it is as heavy. Conjure with ’em.” He goes further in comparing Brutus’ name and Caesar.
