  1. DENNIS: The question is only ONE part of your blog. Look at the directions -- you're supposed to choose a quote of your own, then analyse it, then write questions.

    In response to the question here:
    A handshake can be a greeting. It can be used as a "thank you." It can also be given to seal a deal. So, which of these might make sense to Antony? I think it's the third, but the "deal" is something only Antony knows -- as he shakes the hand of each cospirator, the conspirator believes that Antony is accepting him or perhaps even thanking him, but WE and ANTONY know that Antony is making them a promise for revenge. As Antony looks to each conspirator, he is making a deal with himself to have his revenge against each of them.
