Rebellion Against A King May

If Men, Through Fear, Fraud, Or Mistake, Should In Terms Renounce Or Give Up Any Natural Right, The Eternal Law Of Reason And The Grand End Of Society Would Absolutely Vacate Such Renunciation. The Right To Freedom Being The Gift Of Almighty God, It Is Not In The Power Of Man To Alienate This Gift And Voluntarily Become A Slave.

Driven From Every Other Corner Of The Earth, Freedom Of Thought And The Right Of Private Judgment In Matters Of Conscience Direct Their Course To This Happy Country As Their Last Asylum.

It Requires Time To Bring Honest Men To Think & Determine Alike Even In Important Matters. Mankind Are Governed More By Their Feelings Than By Reason.

It Is Not Unfrequent To Hear Men Declaim Loudly Upon Liberty, Who, If We May Judge By The Whole Tenor Of Their Actions, Mean Nothing Else By It But Their Own Liberty, To Oppress Without Control Or The Restraint Of Laws All Who Are Poorer Or Weaker Than Themselves.

If Ever A Time Should Come, When Vain And Aspiring Men Shall Possess The Highest Seats In Government, Our Country Will Stand In Need Of Its Experienced Patriots To Prevent Its Ruin.
