Easy 10 points if you know about caesar. Thank you soooo much

Answer: i think all this is in Act V ,not Act IV

1. cassius sends titinius to his tent near the hills to check whether the soldiers present there are his friends or enemies. they were actually cassius' people and welcomes titinius with a shout. but, pindarus misinterprets that they are the enemies and they shouted because they were able to capture titinius and tells cassius that titinius is captured which leads to cassius' suicide.

2.when they marched towards philippi,the eagles that flew over them earlier over them were gone, and, ravens and crows took their place, circling over them as if they were their prey.[This is 1 omen]

3.cassius asks pindarus to kill him with the sword(the one which they used to kill caesar)after he closed his eyes and died so with caesar's name on his lips.

4.brutus asks strato to hold his sword(the same one) while he runs onto it and dies with caesar's name on his lips.

5.Brutus

6.Cassius

7.Antony

I think everything is correct(anyway,just check whether there eere some other omens in the play-2nd question)...wrote it from my memory...you can refer sparknotes if you want to(they are really good)....
Hope this helps

History and geography are not the property of anyone

Time is not the property of anyone.. Vaclav Havel at one moment believed that time belonged to him. Alexander had the same impression, until that impression was jolted by the fact that the limit of his time was Persepolis… and the Ganges River in India.
