Q. Please Explain below lines.

"ANTONY Good friends sweet friends, let me not stir you up 
Tu such sudden flood Of mutiny".

What private griefs they have, alas, I know not,"

Antony is addressing citizens of Rome by saying sweet friends.He says i am not convincing u to rebel against murderers who have done this pitiful act as they are honourable men {he is convincing in words with hidden meanings}.Further ,he says he is not aware of the personal reason why those conspirators have killed Caesar{again mentions honourable men}.They will tell the reasons to u.He says he had not come to steal their hearts as he is not a good orator{who convinces the mob wisely} as brutus but just a simple man who loves his friend Caesar .
