"he has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us.
he has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
he is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete 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."

D. Pathos

Pathos is a literary device that is used to garner emotions of pity, sorrow, anger, or other passionate feelings to the point where readers/listeners/audience members are persuaded into acting or thinking in a way the author/speaker wishes.  Thus, it is a persuasive literary device.  That said, let’s look at a few phrases from the excerpt that employ pathos by manner of describing scenes of injustice and cruelty:

“He has plundered our seas…destroyed the lives of our people.”

“…to complete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny...”

“…scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages…”

From these lines alone, it can be seen how readers might be compelled to view the one being described in the light the author does because the emotions that might be invoked by descriptions provided.
