Throughout the play Julius Caesar there are a few speeches that may stand out while
reading. One of these is definitely the one Antony delivers at his best friend Caesars funeral.
When a person looks closer at this speech they might find a few words that have been
emphasized or repeated vigorously throughout and when put in a wordle are the largest. Such as
Brutus, honorable, ambitious, and Caesar are just some of the many words. These above all were
the most repeated out of the whole speech all for its own reason. Though some may have similar
reasoning not all of them do though.
The first word and the most important would have to be Brutus this is because he is the
leader of the conspirators and the main collaborator to the crew. He was the one that everyone
wanted to put in charge to rule the country after they killed Caesar. Also Antony wanted to use
his name sarcastically to make the crowd agree with him and so that they would be angry at
Brutus. Also he was the one talking to the crowd just before Antony came up to speak. He had
the crowd until Antony showed them what Brutus did to their old leader. The word that kind of
runs in with Brutus would be honorable. Antony also used this word very sarcastically to mover
the crowd such as but hes honorable. Even though him saying he was honorable was true its
use was twisted. Even though Brutus is honorable and killed Caesar with good intentions it still
backfired because of Antony. So by using this word and twisting and turning he made the people
hate the man they loved just five minutes before.

The next word apart from those two would be Caesar the whole speech is centered
around this name. He was the cause of everything that accrued in this play, and is all the way to
the end. Antony shows the crowd Caesars body and they get irate and want to kill all the
conspirators also he was talked about a lot by Antony such as Caesar was great and he wasnt
ambitious. All this was a lie Antony new this about Caesar he just had to make it sound good for
the people. The last word goes along with Caesar really well and is ambitious. Antony mentions
it a lot throughout the speech like was he really ambitious or but he was ambitious. He said
this very sarcastically to where one could note that it was not true.
So throughout antonys speech all these words are mentioned or more or less repeated.
When put into a wordle are the biggest on the page which can be interpreted as important. Many
of the speeches in the play have similar traits this one has a lot more repetition so that it gets the
point across.
