He provides this argument through a Pathos lens, as Brutus incites fear in himself by referring to threatening objects as metaphors in a foreboding manner. Lastly, Brutus stated very clearly the danger of Caesar becoming king, and explicitly says that killing him is the way to stop him. Brutus compares Caesar to a snake’s egg, “ And therefore think him as a serpentine’s egg which hatched, as his kind, grow mischievous, And kill him in the shell” (2.1.33-35). This claim can be interpreted as Logos or Pathos. Logos is applicable, as it ties in previous arguments into a logical conclusion to be made about Caesar. Pathos is applicable, as Brutus uses strong language and connotations to invoke emotions in himself. Brutus, of Julius Caesar, believes Caesar would be a very dangerous king. His personality would twist into even more ambition and ruthlessness, and the only way to stop his crowning is to kill
