In the context of Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar," when Brutus is reading, he is distracted by the thoughts of his moral dilemmas and the implications of the conspiracy against Caesar. His internal conflict about betraying a friend for the sake of the Republic weighs heavily on him, leading to sleeplessness and anxiety. This reflects his deep sense of honor and the struggle between loyalty and duty.
