Seeing the body of Caesar, Antony is overcome by grief. What does he say about Caesar?

Antony is filled with grief and sorrow on seeing mighty Caesar lying on the ground. He says “O mighty Caesar! Dost thou lie so low?/ Are all they conquests, glories, triumphs, spoils,/ Shrunk to this little measure?/ Fare thee well.” He said he was totally ignorant of the conspirator’s intentions. He is willing to die at their hands. His life is not as valuable as Caesar’s and he will think himself as fortunate if he is killed by the same sword as the one which killed Caesar. He bids Caesar a sorrowful farewell. He believed that Caesar brought glories, victories and gains in war to the city of Rome.
