Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 1, scene 1.

[FLAVIUS.] See whether their basest mettle be not moved.60
They vanish tongue-tied in their guiltiness.
Go you down that way towards the Capitol;
This way will I. Disrobe the images,
If you do find them decked with ceremonies.

MARULLUS. May we do so?65
You know it is the feast of Lupercal.

FLAVIUS. It is no matter; let no images
Be hung with Caesar’s trophies. I’ll about,
And drive away the vulgar from the streets:
So do you too, where you perceive them thick.

What do Flavius and Marullus hope disrobing the images and statues of Caesar and taking down his trophies will indicate about Caesar?

Caesar will soon gain more power and trophies.
Caesar will soon be stripped of his position of power.
Caesar’s selfishness will make the commoners turn against him.
Caesar dislikes any outward show of gratitude or praise from the Roman people
