Calpurnia sees a fearful dream of Caesar. She saw Caesar’s statue was running pure blood from ‘an hundred spouts’ like a fountain. ‘Lusty’ Romans came smiling. They bathed their hands in Caesar’s blood. She considers that such warnings and omens signal the advent of death and disaster. She fears that some great calamity is going to befall Caesar. Therefore, she begs on her knees that he should not go to the Capitol that day.
