Which is the best summary of The Crisis, Number IV? We are very close to achieving the freedom we have sought for so long, though the struggle to achieve it has been
tiresome. General Howe has great weakness as a leader.
Our recent battles have been very exhausting, and though victory is within reach, we will have to work very hard to
achieve it. As long as we are able to ultimately gain our freedom, it does not matter if we achieve victory in one
battle or in many.
The rewards of freedom can only be obtained through exhausting efforts. Though our recent experiences in battle
may have worn down our spirit and our physical strength, remember that we have made significant advances
against the British troops.
We will have to struggle more diligently if we wish to achieve victory and ultimately enjoy the benefits of freedom.
General Howe's army has proven itself very capable.
