Read the excerpt below from act 5.3 of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar and answer the question that follows. BRUTUS:Friends, I owe more tearsTo this dead man than you shall see me pay.—I shall find time, Cassius; I shall find time. Which universal theme does this passage not address?

Brutus’s words show loss through his grief for the dead man, and friendship through his promise to Cassius that he will find time to mourn. His sense of duty and respect can also suggest honor. The passage does not express fear, so “fear” is the theme it does not address.
