Answer 1

2, 4, 5

Explanation:

Casca describes a slave whose hand was burning without being harmed, women walking in the streets while surrounded by fire, and an owl hooting at noon. These unnatural events create an atmosphere of fear and foretell disaster. The lion was alive and rampant, not dead, and there was no eagle or twenty torches.
