Answer 1

Antony uses the word honourable like a refrain eight times so that by the end of his speech it becomes a term of verbal mockery to describe Brutus.

Explanation:

Antony repeats the word ‘honourable’ with increasing sarcasm. At first, it appears to show respect for Brutus, but later it clearly mocks him. The refrain makes the crowd question whether Brutus is honourable at all.
