What does Caesar observe about Cassius?
Cassius and Caesar, according to Shakespeare's play, were childhood friends (Cassius told a story of how he even saved Caesar from drowning in the Tiber River). Obviously, they were once good friends. However, Caesar gained more power and disregarded Cassius (Cassius also became more jealous and was not so friendly in return). Caesar had new friends, like Antony and Brutus, who were loyal to him. Caesar did not need Cassius to be his friend; he felt threatened by Cassius at one point. He said to Antony that he did not trust him (he was a thinker, probably plotting something devious). Caesar had hubris and did not feel threatened, really, by anyone. Obviously, Caesar undermined Cassius and did not care for him as a friend.

In Julius Caesar which character establishes the notion that Caesar is ambitious and that Caesar is too high and is a danger to free men?
Cassius did In their long conversation which forms the bulk of Act I Scene 2 Cassius attempts to convince Brutus that Caesar is a threat to the traditional values of the Roman Republic. Cassius' main argument is simply that Caesar is an ordinary man: I had as lief not be as live to be In awe of such a thing as I myself. Cassius tells Brutus that Caesar sweats when he is ill, and that he does not swim as strongly as a younger man:- but the common people of Rome love him (and this is somehow dangerous): And this man Is now become a God, and Cassius is A wretched creature. None of the conspirators in the play have any substantial objection to Caesar, and Cassius is simply eaten up with envy. Caesar knows this, he says: Yond' Cassius has a lean and hungry look; He thinks too much, such men are dangerous. But Caesar is too proud to act on his suspicions. This is his weakness.

What is has in Elizabethan English?
Shakespeare's language was English, and "has" is "has". An example is "Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look: he thinks too much: such men are dangerous." (Julius Caesar). Sometimes, though, Shakespeare uses the word "hath" instead (this is a holdover from Middle English, the language of Chaucer two hundred years earlier), and his choice of one or the other appears to be random. A good example is Banquo's line in Macbeth: "The earth hath bubbles as the water has."
