Since Cassius first did whet me against Caesar

Since Cassius first did whet me against Caesar,
I have not slept.
Between the acting of a dreadful thing
And the first motion, all the interim is
Like a phantasma or a hideous dream.Simile

The Genius and the mortal instruments
Are then in council;Metaphor & Personification
and the state of a man,
Like to a little kingdom, suffers then
The nature of an insurrection.Simile
