Explanation:

The correct summary must capture all key details: Antony first tells the servant to hurry to report events to Octavius, notes Rome is unsafe for him, then orders the servant to wait until Antony brings Caesar's corpse to the marketplace and gauges the people's reaction to his oration, so the servant can give Octavius an updated, accurate report of Rome's state. The third option includes all these critical elements, while others omit key steps.

Answer:

Antony tells Octavius's servant to tell Octavius what has happened and to say that Rome is not safe for Octavius yet. Antony tells him to hurry, but then tells him to wait until after he takes Caesar's body to the marketplace to see how the people react to his eulogy. Once Antony's speech is done, the servant have a better idea of what will happen next with Rome and can give Octavius the most up-to-date information.
