DOCUMENT THAT
MADE A NATION
Text OF The Immortal Declaration Of
Independence With Which All
Americans Should Be
Familiar.

When, in the course of human
events, it becomes necessary for one
people TO dissolve the political bands
which have connected them with an
other, and to assume, among the pow
ers of the earth, the separate and
equal station to which the laws OF
nature and natures God entitle them,
a decent respect to the opinions of
mankind requires that they should
declare the causes which impel them
to the separation.
We ho.d these truths to be self-evi-
dent-tnat all men are created equal;
that they are endowed by their Crea-
tor with certain inalienable rights;
that among these are life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. That to Sc
cure these rights, governments are in
stituted among men, deriving their
lust powers from the consent of the
governed; that whenever any form of
government becomes destructive of
these ends, it is the right of the peo-
pie TO alter or TO abolish it, and to
institute new government, laying It's
foundation on such principles, and or
ganizing its power in such form as to
them shall seem most likely to effect
their safety and happiness. Provi-
dence, indeed will dictate that gov
ernments long established should not
be changed for light and transient
causes; and accordingly, all expert
ence hath shown, that mankind are
more disposed to suffer. while evils
are sutferable, than to right them
selves by abolishing the forms to
which they are accustomed. But when
a long train of abuses and usurpations
pursuing invariably the same object,
eyinces a design to reduce them under
absolute despotism, it is their right,
it is their duty, to throw off such gov
eminent, and to provide new guards
for their future security. Such has
been the patient sufferance Of these
colonies, and such is now the necessity
which colstrains them to alter their
former systems Of government. The
history Of the present king Of Great
Britain is a history Of repeated injur-
les and uSurpations, all having, in di-
rect object, the establishment Of an
absolute tyranny over these states.
To prove this. let facts be submitted
to a candid world:

the public good.
He has forbidden his governors to
pass laws of immediate and pressing
importance, unless suspended in their
operation till his assent should be OBJ
tanned; and, when so suspended, h:

them.
He has refused to pass other laws
for the accommodation of large dis
tricts of people, unless these people
would relinguish the right of repre-
sentation in the legislature; right
inestimable to them. and formidable
to tyranny only.
He has called together legislative
bodies at places unusual, uncomfort-
able and distant from the depository
of their public records, for the sole
purpose of fatiguing them into COM
pliance with his measures.
He has dissolved representative
houses repeatedly for opposing with
manly firmness his invasions on the
rights of the people.
He has kept among us, in time of
peace, standing armies, without the
consent of our legislatures.

acts of pretended legislation.
