Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 1, scene 1. [FLAVIUS.] See whether their basest metal be not moved.60 They vanish tongue-tied in their guiltiness. Go you down that way towards the Capitol; This way will I. Disrobe the images, If you do find them decked with ceremonies. MARULLUS. May we do so?65 You know it is the feast of Lupercal. FLAVIUS. It is no matter; let no images Be hung with Caesar’s trophies. I’ll about, And drive away the vulgar from the streets: So do you too, where you perceive them thick.
Which paraphrase of the passage is the most accurate?
A. Flavius says, “See whether their basest metal be not moved. They vanish tongue-tied in their guiltiness.” Then he tells Marullus where to go to “disrobe the images.” Marullus protests because it is the feast of Lupercal, but Flavius tells him that it does not matter. Flavius says, “Let no images be hung with Caesar’s trophies,” and tells Marullus to clean up the streets.
B. Flavius and Marullus decide to wipe the streets clean of homage to Caesar and to chase away those who want to celebrate him.
C. Flavius and Marullus talk about who should complete what task to clear the streets.
D. Flavius hopes that he has changed the high spirits of the people in the streets and sends them away before Caesar sees them. He instructs Marullus to go toward the capitol, while he himself goes the other way to take down any images of Caesar or decorations on his statues. Marullus wants to know if that is OK, because everyone is celebrating the feast of Lupercal. Flavius does not care, and he tells Marullus to do as he says and send the crowds home.
