Caesar dead
ANTONY. Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me
your ears
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their bones.
So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus
Hath told you Caesar was ambitious.
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Caesar answered it.
Antony does not believe that Casar deserves a
funeral but unwillingly agreed to speak to please
the conspirators.
The mistakes men make are remembered after their
deaths, but their good deads more often die with
them.

and he paid seriously for it
Antony believes the conspirators should be
rewarded with riches for their sacrifice and
willingness to kill the ambitious Caesar
