Antony says, "You all did see upon the Lupercal, I thrice presented him a kingly crown, which he did thrice refuse." Thrice means three times, in the same way that twice means two times.
In Shakespeare's play, Casca tells Brutus that Antony offered Caesar a crown (a coronet) because the people clamored that Caesar should be king. He says that Caesar refused it three times, each time less vigorously. Caesar, although desiring absolute power, spurns the classic role of "king" which the populace might see as a dominating or oppressive force, and cultivates a role as "friend of the people" in contrast to the aristocratic Senate.

In the minds of the Romans, the title of king was tarnished by the memory of the tyrant Tarquin Superbus who was overthrown when the Republic was first set up. Caesar was in fact the dictator of the state and held powers just as broad as those of a king, but the people would not mind, as long as he did not call himself a king. Antony later plays on this event: "You all did see upon the Lupercal, I thrice presented him a kingly crown which he did thrice refuse. Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?"
