50 points and brainliest to best and correct answer letter to her husband abigail adams i feel very differently at the approach of spring to what i did a month ago. we knew not then whether we could plant or sow with safety, whether we could reap the fruits of our own industry, whether we could rest in our own cottages, or whether we should not be driven from the sea coasts to seek shelter in the wilderness, but now we feel as if we might sit under our own vine and eat the good of the land. i feel a gaiety de coar [coeur] to which before i was a stranger. i think the sun looks brighter, the birds sing more melodiously, and nature puts on a more cheerful countenance. we feel a temporary peace, and the poor fugitives are returning to their deserted habitations. tho we felicitate ourselves, we sympathize with those who are trembling least the lot of boston should be theirs. but they cannot be in similar circumstances unless pusillanimity and cowardice should take possession of them. they have time and warning given them to see the evil and shun it. -- i long to hear that you have declared an independency -- and by the way in the new code of laws which i suppose it will be necessary for you to make i desire you would remember the ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the husbands. remember all men would be tyrants if they could. if particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice, or representation. that your sex are naturally tyrannical is a truth so thoroughly established as to admit of no dispute, but such of you as wish to be happy willingly give up the harsh title of master for the more tender and endearing one of friend. why then, not put it out of the power of the vicious and the lawless to use us with cruelty and indignity with impunity. men of sense in all ages abhor those customs which treat us only as the vassals of your sex. regard us then as beings placed by providence under your protection and in imitation of the supreme being make use of that power only for our happiness. question 1: what is abigail trying to convince her husband to do? give at least two examples of how she attempts to persuade him by providing textual evidence within your response.
