Julius Caesar Act I

       “Julius Caesar” was warned at the beginning of the play.  As him and his wife were walking to the Festival of Lupercal games, a man approached him.  The old fortune-teller said that Caesar should beware the Ideas of March.  Although Caesar has shown earlier that he believes in superstitions he ignores the old man.  He calls him a dreamer and continues to the games.  Readers know that the warning foreshadows Caesars upcoming murder.
