Answer:
a) Antony wants Caesar to forgive him for being nice to his conspirators.
c) Antony predicts that the land will be bloodied by men fighting men.
e) Antony expects Caesar's ghost to seek retribution for the wrongs done.
Explanation:
The given soliloquy of Antony in Act III scene i of William Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" is from the scene right after the death of Caesar. The scene shows Antony being given permission by Brutus to give a speech to the people about Caesar.
In the speech, Antony seeks "pardon" to the corpse of Caesar for being "meek and gentle with these butchers" who had murdered him. He prophesied that the land will be full of war, man fighting against the men who had done the murderous deed,
"Domestic fury and fierce civil strife
Shall cumber all the parts of Italy;
Blood and destruction shall be so in use".
He also seeks retribution from Caesar's ghost for the wrongs that had been done to him. He invokes "Caesar’s spirit, ranging for revenge [.....] hot from hell", will come and create havoc for the men responsible for his death.
Thus, the correct answers are options a), c) and e).
