In act III, scene X of William Shakespeares Antony and Cleopatra there are many different examples of dramatic impact. ... Before this scene, we dont know much about Canidius, but in this scene Canidius deserts Antony as soon as it looks like he could lose the sea battle, "To Caesar I will render my legions and my horse", showing the audience that Canidius is un-loyal, glory-seeking and quite cowardly.
The audience also begins to doubt Enobarbus loyalty towards Antony because he says "Ill yet follow the wounded chance of Antony, though my reason sits in the wind against me."
This scene would also change an audiences view towards Antony, although I feel that their feelings would be mixed. I believe that their view of Antony as a soldier/leader would change at the same time that Antonys mens view of him changes.
