This excerpt is from the play Julius Caesar correct? I read the (SV Simplified Version) of the play and the (MV Modern Version) of the play. However not the original version since it seemed too complicated. If you read the play Cassius in Act lll scene l words found above. You can tell that "aside" is a speech spoken by a character to the audience or to another character onstage that others onstage are not supposed to hear. Cassius in this aside knows the power that Antony has with "the mob," so he explains:You know not what you do; do not consentThat Antony speak in his funeral.Know you how much the people may be movedBy that which he will utter?That is why the correct answer must be: D. the two speak quietly so others cannot hear them.
