1 5.1.2 Exam: Wrap Up Read the following excerpt from a 1775 speech by Patrick Henry in which he
presents his ideas concerning the American colonists' relationship with Great
Britain:
Fhave but one lamp by which my feet are guided; and that
is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of
the future but by the past. And judging by the past, I wish
to know what there has been in the conduct of the British
ministry for the last ten years, to justify those hopes with
which gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves
and the house? Is it that insidious smile with which our
petition has been lately received? Trust it not, sir, it will
prove a snare to your feet. Suffer not yourselves to be
betrayed with a kiss.
Which best explains the purpose of the rhetorical device used in this excerpt?
