c. he appeals to his readers' emotions by imagining the consequences of not acting as he suggests.
d. he appeals to his readers' emotions by portraying the benefits of engaging in a prolonged war.
by perseverance and fortitude we have the prospect of a glorious issue; by cowardice and submission, the sad choice of a variety of evils—a ravaged country—a depopulated city—habitations without safety, and slavery without hope—our homes turned into barracks and bawdy-houses for hessians, and a future race to provide for, whose fathers we shall doubt of. look on this picture and weep over it! and if there yet remains one thoughtless wretch who believes it not, let him suffer it unlamented.
