What was Antony actually referring when he said thou bleeding piece of earth?

The body of Caesar


Is there a soliloquy in Julius Caesar?

Yes, Antony's soliloquy in Act 3 Scene 1 beginning with the words "O pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth."


Is Antony honest when he speaks to the conspirators?

No, he wanted to gain the trust of the conspirators just to be able to give his speech in Caesar's Funeral. In his soliloquy right after the conspirators tell us so. "Oh, pardon me thou bleeding piece of earth, that I am meek and gentle with these Butchers!" He obviously meant the opposite when he said he loved the conspirators.


What does thou bleeding piece of earth mean?

He's talking about Caesar's body. Once dead, a body is just earth, to rot and become part of the soil.


Who said o pardon you thou bleeding piece of earth that you are meek and gentle with these butchers?

it is from "Julius Caesar", a play by Shakespeare it is the beginning of a famous monologue, which comes before another, even more famous monologue Marc Antony gives this monologue to Caesar's body it means that he is sorry that he is simply talking to the conspirators who killed Ceasar. He was Caesar's right hand man, a general of the roman army, and rumored to have been Caesar's lover. The speech he gives following this turns the crowd to his side. You probably have heard the beginning of this one too, it starts off: FRIENDS, ROMANS, Countrymen, lend me your ears! anyway so that's what it means he is sorry that he is not immediately avenging Caesar, and that he is merely talking to them immediately after killing Caesar.

What is the largest sea in the Earth?

If you are referring to oceans, it's the Pacific Ocean. If you are referring to inland seas, it's the Caspian Sea. If you are just referring to seas, I believe it's the Mediterranean Sea. Nope it's the South China Sea, and the Caspian Sea is actually a Lake.
