Note
"The state of our public affairs yet appears dubious. How far the ministry may push matters is uncertain."
"Lord North is a litle moderated and confesses that the measures he has pursued to not equal his expectations. It is high time for him to bethink himselr what will be his fate if he persists in them ...."
"The scaffold should always be ready to receive such traitorous parricides ...."
"Americans have a just value for their inestimable rights and privileges. They are determined to preserve them at the peril of their lives and futures.... For what has life to boast when liberty is gone?."
"Never let us yield, but like the inhabitants of the seven United Provinces in their opposition to Philip the Second of Spain let us 'Die rather than live slaves."
"If we tamely submit we may reasonably expect that the curses of every future generation will be heaped on us
