Read the excerpt from act 5, scene 1, of Julius Caesar.

OCTAVIUS. Come, come, the cause. If arguing make us sweat,
The proof of it will turn to redder drops.
Look, I draw a sword against conspirators.
When think you that the sword goes up again?
Never, till Caesar’s three and thirty wounds
Be well avenged, or till another Caesar
Have added slaughter to the sword of traitors.

It describes the number of wounds that Caesar suffered.
It emphasizes the savagery of the assassins’ actions toward Caesar.
