What does Cassius mean when he says that Caesar does not have the falling sickness but that the ones that have the falling sickness are himself, Brutus, and Casca? How does this prove to be persuasive? (lines: 265-267)
HINT: Think about the emphasized image.

When he says, 'but you (Brutus) and I, | And honest Casca, we have the falling sickness' he does not mean it literally, but symbolically. Cassius means that he, Brutus, and Casca as senators have the 'falling sickness' because as Caesar gains power, they lose it. They are falling in the ranks of political importance.

Explanation:

hope this helps! :)
