That, to fjqure thefe rights, Goverrirrients biu inllituted among men, driving their u!l powers from the- conient 3t the governed ; . that whenever a ny tor.tn of government becomes d-druftive of thefe ends, it : is the right of the people to alter or to ai bohlh it, and to inftitute a new Go vernment, laying, its foundation onrfuch principles, and orgajiizing its powers ih fuch form, as to them fhd feem mo I likely to effect their lafety and happinefs. Prudencej iufed will difctate that Govern-j rnents long elabliihed fhould not Icianged for light and -rtranfient caufes: and accordingly all expe rience hath Oiewn, . that mankind are more difpofedtofuCfer, while e vilsarc f u ffe rab 1 e, t h an t o rig h 1 1 h e tn . felves by abolifhing; the forms to "which they iireaccuiloined; But if 4 , long train of abufes and ufurpa- tious, purluing invarjarify tne fame objeS, evinces a defigri to reduce them under abfolute defpotifm, it is their right, it is their duty to throw off fuch Government, and to provide new guards for their fu ture fecurity. ouch jias been the patient fufFeranct ohthefe colonies: and Inch is now the nccelftty which con H rains them tq alter their for mer I y Hems of Government, The liiltory of the prefent King of Great Britain isa-niftory of repeated injuries and ufurpations, all having in di reft objecl: the eftablimment df an abfolute Tyranny over thefe States. To prove this, let fafts be fubmittedto a candid world. He has refufed his allent to laws the moll wholefome and neceffdi v r 1 "1 1 V iot me public good. : He !ms forbidden jits Governors to pafs laws of immediate "and pref- Jing importance; unlefs Tufpended inHhdr opeiation, till his a lent fhould be obtained : ; and when fo fufpended, he has utterly neglettea to attend to them. He has refufed to pafs other laws for the accommodation of large wftrias of people, unlefs thole 'people would reiinquifh the riehts otj rere.ientation in the Legiflaiure a ngnt.inemmabie to them, and r ormidable to tvrants onlv. He has called, together Legifla tive Bodies, at places unnfaai; un comfortable, and difiant from the tjepofnory of the pujjlk records, W the. fole pufpoie, of fatiguing Qm into a compliance with his tyeaiures. He I;as diflblved Ileptefentative iioufes repeatedly, for oppofin, ith manly iirmnefs, his invahons inhe rights of the people. He has refufed, for a long time after Juch dilTohuions, to caufe o- il,-- 1 . r - ycrs to be elected; whereby the giiiativc powers, incapable of nihilation have returned to tne P9ple at large, tor their cxercife: State remaining,! in the mean expoied to all thedangers of . n.S dcclaratiun carrn from ,Um . kf Mr T . rr on, r. - m invafion from without, and convul- fibns within. " I 4 He has endeavoured to prevent tlie population of thefe States ; for thit purpofe obffrucHng the laws tor thei Uatpranzauon 01 ioreign- r c . r. . ers; rerunng to pais ainers, 10 en courage their migrations hither, and railing the conditions, of ilew p.ffm nnriations 01 lands. He has ob!lrucled the admini If ration of juftice,; by refuting, his ahent to ivs io ciwuuiuujg juuiviiiy. powers, He has made Judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their falaries. He as erected a multitude of new offices, and fent hither fwarms of officers to harrafs our people, apd eat out their Tub fiance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Handing armies, with out the confent of our Legifla tures He has affecled to render the Mi Utary independent of, and fuperior to the Civil Power. , ; , He has combined with others, to fubject us to a jurifdiclion foreign to our conititution, and unacknow led by our laws giving his aflent to their ah of pretended legifla tion; For quartering large bodies of ar med troops among us : 5 For protecting them by a mock' trial, from punimment, for any mur ders vhich they lhoultl commit on the inhabitants of thefe States : . For cutting ofFour tracje witl aji parts of tbe world : . Fpr imposing taixes on us without our confent : .f "For r4nrirrnfT in in' manv tes of tjhe benefits of trial by Jury : ror traniporting us beyond leas, to be tried for pretended offences : for abolifhing the free fyitem of Engliflji lavs in a neighbouring province, eflabliiriing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarg ing itsjboundaries, fo as to render it at orjee an example and fitiuftru. ment for introducing the fpme ab folute rule into thefe colonies For taking away our charters, a boliihipg our moll valuable laws, andaltering fundamentally the forms o.f Our Govern ments :--- For jfufpending our own Legifla tuies, and declaring themfelves in vefled' with power to legiflate for us, in jail cafes whatfoever. He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection, and waging waragainfl us. He has plundered our leas, ra vaged bur coafts,. burnt our tovVns. J and deftroyed the lives of our peo ple. He is at this time tranfporting large .armies of foreign mercena- nes, 'to complete the works of Death; Defolation, and Tyranny, already begun, with circumftances of cruelty and perfidy, fcarcely ages, and totally unworthy the hr.ad ! of a civilized nation. ; He has con drained our feliDw citizens, taken captive on the high feas, to bear arms again ft : their country, to become the executio ners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themfelves by their hands. He has excited domcfHc infur reclions amongft us, and has endea voured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers the rnercilefs Indian favages, whofe known rule of warfare is an undiftinguifhed def inition, of all ages, fexes, and conditions-. In every flage of thefe opp refit -ons, r have petitioned for "re drefs, in the moft Iiumle -.terms ; our repeated petitions bave been anfwered only by repeated injury. AT'Prrnce whofe character is thus marked by every al which . may define a tyrant, is uiifit to be the Rtder of a free people. , Norl have ?e been wanting in attentions to our Britifh brethren; We have warned tjiem, from time l to time of attempts bv their, L'egiffc Irture. tb exiend an unwanruabie jurifdition ver us;..- WcIiayer-; minded liim? of the circurriftahces of our emigration, and fetilerrient here, We have appeafed to their native juitice ana niagnarurriity a'n.d we.--hayb :Vonj ared" tlieni.f by tbe - ties; Jof bur common ; kin dred, tojdiivdW theJe ufbrbriSy which -Hvbajld-" inevitab If- inter Vupt ourj cf)nne6lions : and jcorref pondence. i 'TJiey, ,too,v have been deaf to the voice of jhfiice and of confanguin iy ; We mull therefore acqtiiefc in; the neceflityi Wbich denounces bur reparation, and hold them as We hold - the rell of Man- kin Enemies ih farinlfeace Friends; :i ..
