Explanation:

In the excerpt, Flavius compares Caesar's growing power to feathers that let him "soar above the view of men" and keep others in fear. Removing these feathers aims to reduce his elevated, overbearing status, so the feathers symbolize Caesar's arrogant, overgrown power that distances him from ordinary people.

arrogance
