Read the excerpt from act 4, scene 3, of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar.

BRUTUS. O Cassius, I am sick of many griefs.

CASSIUS. Of your philosophy you make no use,
If you give place to accidental evils.

BRUTUS. No man bears sorrow better. Portia is dead.

CASSIUS. Ha! Portia?

BRUTUS. She is dead.

CASSIUS. How scaped I killing when I crossed you so?
O insupportable and touching loss!
Upon what sickness?

BRUTUS. Impatient of my absence,
And grief that young Octavius with Mark Antony
Have made themselves so strong—for with her death
That tidings came. With this, she fell distraught,
And, her attendants absent, swallowed fire.

CASSIUS. And died so?

BRUTUS. Even so.

CASSIUS. O ye immortal gods!

[Enter LUCIUS, with wine and taper]

BRUTUS. Speak no more of her. Give me a bowl of wine.
In this I bury all unkindness, Cassius.

CASSIUS. My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge.
Fill, Lucius, till the wine o’erswell the cup;
I cannot drink too much of Brutus’ love.

Respuesta :

Answer:

"How scaped am I killing when I crossed you so? / O insupportable and touching loss!"

"My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge. / Fill, Lucius, till the wine o', Roswell the cup."

Explanation:

The tribunes of Marallus and Flavius led to the disruption of a gathering of the Roman citizens who wanted to celebrate the triumph of Caesar after he returned safely from the war. The victory was to marl the free game that Mark had taken part in. This made the arena stop Caesar, and he was warned that he should be informed about the Ides. Therefore Brutus and Cacius suspected the reactions of Caesar because of the public power he had held. And because of this, they had a fear that he will not be an emperor.

Answer:

The answers are indeed:

“How scaped I killing when I crossed you so? / O insupportable and touching loss!”

“My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge. / Fill, Lucius, till the wine o’erswell the cup”

Explanation:

In the "Tragedy of Julius Caesar", a play by William Shakespeare, Brutus and Cassius are in disagreement. They had previously made an alliance to kill the emperor, Julius Caesar. Brutus believed they had done so in the name of justice. When Cassius ask him to not expose and to forgive a man accused of bribery, Brutus gets angry at him. They argue about, but reconcile.

When Cassius asks, “How scaped I killing when I crossed you so? / O insupportable and touching loss!” he is surprised at the fact the Brutus, even though mourning Portia's death, was composed and loving enough to no kill him while they were arguing. Then he says, “My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge. / Fill, Lucius, till the wine o’erswell the cup”. The wine is compared to Brutus's love. Cassius wants to have plenty of it.
