Solution

due to his deep devotion and loyalty to Julius Caesar.

Explanation:

Cassius fears Antony because he is ‘so well beloved of Caesar’, i.e., deeply devoted and loyal to Caesar. Cassius knows that such devotion would make Antony dangerous and vengeful after Caesar’s death. However, Brutus dismisses this fear by calling Antony ‘but a limb of Caesar’.
