This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Read the excerpt from act 5, scene 3, of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar.

MESSALA. Seek him, Titinius, whilst I go to meet

The noble Brutus, thrusting this report

Into his ears. I may say, "thrusting” it,

For piercing steel and darts envenomed

Shall be as welcome to the ears of Brutus

As tidings of this sight.

TITINIUS. Hie you, Messala,

And I will seek for Pindarus the while.

[Exit MESSALA]

Why didst thou send me forth, brave Cassius?

Did I not meet thy friends, and did not they

Put on my brows this wreath of victory,

And bid me give it thee? Didst thou not hear their shouts?

Alas, thou hast misconstrued everything!

But hold thee, take this garland on thy brow.

Thy Brutus bid me give it thee, and I

Will do his bidding. Brutus, come apace,

And see how I regarded Caius Cassius.

By your leave, gods,—this is a Roman’s part:

Come, Cassius’ sword, and find Titinius’ heart.

What moral dilemma does this excerpt express?

A)Titinius feels guilty that Cassius is dead, and decides he must kill himself.

B)Brutus feels guilty that Cassius is dead, and decides to give him a garland.

C)Messala has to decide whether to tell Brutus about Cassius or to kill Pindarus.

D)Titinius has to decide whether to tell Brutus about Cassius or to kill Pindarus.

The correct answer is option A)Titinius feels guilty that Cassius is dead, and decides he must kill himself.

Explanation:

The moment Titinus finds himself alone on the scene, he starts talking to Cassius, who is actually supposed to be dead already.

This causes great guilt to Titinus who decides that he must kill himself. This act will be carried out through the Cassius sword, as we can see at the end of the excerpt:

"By your leave, gods, —this is a Roman’s part:

Come, Cassius ’sword, and find Titinius’ heart. "
