The answer is: He is furious he must bow down to Caesar.

In the excerpt from "Julius Caesar," Cassius is enraged at having to bown down as a signal of respect to someone as powerful as Caesar. He feels as if he were a slave to Caesar, but since he claims he has saved Caesar's life, he does not consider him higher in rank.
