"Hence! Home, you idle creatures, you get home:
Is this a holiday? What, know you not,
Being mechanical, you ought not walk
Upon a labouring day without the sign
Of your profession? Speak, what trade art thou?"-Flavius
In this quote Flavius is yelling at a crowd of commoners to leave.
"Why, sir, a carpenter".-1st Commoner
Here, a commoner is answering Flavius’ question of what is job is.
"Where is thy leather apron, and thy rule?
What dost thou with thy best apparel on?
You, sir, what trade are you?"-Marullus
In this quote Marullus is asking the commoner where his tools are. And asking another commoner what he does.
"Truly, sir, in respect of a fine workman, I am
but, as you would say, a cobbler."-2nd Commoner
Here the second commoner is trying to be clever.
"But what trade art thou? Answer me directly."-Marullus
In this quote Marullus is now very angry with the commoner.
"A trade, sir, that I hope I may use with a safe
conscience; which is, indeed, sir a mender of bad soles."-2nd Commoner
Here the commoner uses wordplay on the word "soles".
"What trade, thou knave? thou naughty knave, what
trade?"-Marullus
Now Marullus is extremely angry at the commoner.
"Nay, I beseech you, sir, be not out with me:
yet, if you be out, sir, I can mend you."-2nd Commoner
Now the commoner is just being confusing on purpose to upset the guard.
"What meanest thou by that? Mend me, thou saucy
fellow?"-Marullus
In this quote Marullus is telling the commoner that he is stupid and should just say is trade.
"But wherefore art not in thy shop today?
Why dost thou lead these men about the streets?"-2nd Commoner
Here in this quote Marullus is asking why the commoner is not in his shop and why he is leading this crowd around the town.
"Truly, sir, to wear out their shoes, to get
myself into more work. But indeed, sir, we make holiday to
see Caesar, and to rejoice in his triumph."-2nd Commoner
Here the commoner is answering that he wants to where out their shoes so he could have more work for himself.
"May we do so?
You know it is the feast of Lupercal."-Marullus
This is Marullus answering flavius’ question if they should rip down Caesar’s decorations.
"Beware the ides of March."-Soothsayer
Here a fortune-teller is telling Caesar to beware of the 15th of March.
