Excerpt from Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death
Patrick Henry
5 It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-but there is no peace. The war is actually begun!
The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the
field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be
purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me,
give me liberty or give me death!
Which sentence restates the message of paragraph 5?
es )
Slavery should be abolished in order to keep the peace,
I am ready to fight for my freedom even if it means I might die
Peace marches are the best way to convince the public that war is bad.
Peace is so sweet and life is so dear that we should never risk either
