TEXT("IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.\r\t\nThe unanimous \
Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,\r\nWHEN in the \
Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to \
dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, \
and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal \
Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, \
a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should \
declare the causes which impel them to the Separation.\r\n"),
TEXT ("WE hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created \
equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain \
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit \
of Happiness -- That to secure these Rights, Governments are \
instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of \
the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive \
of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish \
it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such \
Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall \
seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, "),
TEXT ("indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should \
not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all \
Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while \
Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms \
to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and \
Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to \
reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their \
Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for \
their future Security. Such has been the patient Sufferance of these \
Colonies; and "),
TEXT ("such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their \
former Systems of Government. The History of the present King of Great \
Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having \
in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these \
States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World.")
TEXT("HE has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and \
necessary for the public Good.\r\nHE has forbidden his Governors to \
pass Laws of immediate and pressing Importance, unless suspended in \
their Operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so \
suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.\r\n")
TEXT("HE has refused to pass other Laws for the Accommodation of large \
Districts of People, unless those People would relinquish the Right of \
Representation in the Legislature, a Right inestimable to them, and \
formidable to Tyrants only.\r\nHE has called together Legislative \
Bodies at Places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the \
Depository of their public Records, for the sole Purpose of fatiguing \
them into Compliance with his Measures.\r\n")
TEXT("HE has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing \
with manly Firmness his Invasions on the Rights of the People.\r\nHE \
has refused for a long Time, after such Dissolutions, to cause others \
to be elected; whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of the \
Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; \
the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the Dangers of \
Invasion from without, and the Convulsions within.\r\n")
TEXT("HE has endeavoured to prevent the Population of these States; \
for that Purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners\
; refusing to pass others to encourage their Migrations hither, and \
raising the Conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.\r\nHE has \
obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to \
Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers.\r\nHE has made Judges \
dependent on his Will alone, for the Tenure of their Offices, and the \
Amount and Payment of their Salaries.")
TEXT("HE has erected a Multitude of new Offices, and sent hither \
Swarms of Officers to harrass our People, and eat out their \
Substance.\r\nHE has kept among us, in Times of Peace, Standing \
Armies, without the consent of our Legislatures.\r\nHE has affected to \
render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.\r\n")
TEXT("HE has combined with others to subject us to a Jurisdiction \
foreign to our Constitution, and unacknowledged by our Laws; giving \
his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:\r\nFOR quartering \
large Bodies of Armed Troops among us;\r\nFOR protecting them, by a mock \
Trial, from Punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the \
Inhabitants of these States:\r\nFOR cutting off our Trade with all \
Parts of the World:")
TEXT("FOR imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:\r\nFOR depriving \
us, in many Cases, of the Benefits of Trial by Jury:\r\nFOR \
transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offences:\r\n\
FOR abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring \
Province, establishing therein an arbitrary Government, and enlarging \
its Boundaries, so as to render it at once an Example and fit \
Instrument for introducing the same absolute Rules into these \
Colonies:")
TEXT("FOR taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, \
and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:\r\nFOR \
suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested \
with Power to legislate for us in all Cases whatsoever.\r\nHE has \
abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and \
waging War against us.\r\nHE has plundered our Seas, ravaged our \
Coasts, burnt our Towns, and destroyed the Lives of our People.\r\n")
TEXT("HE is, at this Time, transporting large Armies of foreign \
Mercenaries to compleat the Works of Death, Desolation, and Tyranny, \
already begun with circumstances of Cruelty and Perfidy, scarcely \
paralleled in the most barbarous Ages, and totally unworthy the Head \
of a civilized Nation.\r\nHE has constrained our fellow Citizens taken \
Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become \
the Executioners of their Friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves \
by their Hands.\r\n")
TEXT("HE has excited domestic Insurrections amongst us, and has \
endeavoured to bring on the Inhabitants of our Frontiers, the \
merciless Indian Savages, whose known Rule of Warfare, is an \
undistinguished Destruction, of all Ages, Sexes and Conditions.\r\nIN \
every stage of these Oppressions we have Petitioned for Redress in the \
most humble Terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by \
repeated Injury. A Prince, whose Character is thus marked by every act \
which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the Ruler of a free People.")
TEXT("NOR have we been wanting in Attentions to our Brittish Brethren. \
We have warned them from Time to Time of Attempts by their Legislature \
to extend an unwarrantable Jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them \
of the Circumstances of our Emigration and Settlement here. We have \
appealed to their native Justice and Magnanimity, and we have conjured \
them by the Ties of our common Kindred to disavow these Usurpations, \
which, would inevitably interrupt our Connections and Correspondence. \
They too have been deaf to the Voice of Justice and of Consanguinity. \
We must, therefore, acquiesce in the Necessity, which denounces our \
Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of Mankind, Enemies in \
War, in Peace, Friends.\r\n")
TEXT("WE, therefore, the Representatives of the UNITED STATES OF \
AMERICA, in GENERAL CONGRESS, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme \
Judge of the World for the Rectitude of our Intentions, do, in the \
Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly \
Publish and Declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right \
ought to be, FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES; that they are absolved from \
all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political Connection \
between them and the State of Great-Britain, is and ought to be \
totally dissolved; and that as FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES, they have \
full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish \
Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which INDEPENDENT STATES \
may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm \
Reliance on the Protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to \
each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.")
