What do you think is Paine's purpose in this excerpt from Common Sense? Cite evidence from the excerpt to support your claim. When William the Conqueror subdued England he gave them law at the point of the sword; and until we consent that the seat of

may treat us in the same manner, and then, where will be our freedom? Where our property?
