Which of the following excerpts from The American Crisis is an example of an appeal to logos?
A. I conceive likewise a horrid idea in receiving mercy from a being,
who at the last day shall be shrieking to the rocks and mountains
to cover him, and fleeing with terror from the orphan, the widow,
and the slain of America.
B. There are cases which cannot be overdone by language, and this
is one. There are persons, too, who see not the full extent of the
evil which threatens them. They solace themselves with hopes
that the enemy, if they succeed, will be merciful.
a
C. The blood of his children will curse his cowardice, who shrinks
back at a time when a little might have saved the whole, and made
them happy. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can
gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection.
D. By perseverance and fortitude we have the prospect of a glorious
issue; by cowardice and submission, the sad choice of a variety of
evils-a ravaged country, a depopulated city, habitations without
safety, and slavery without hope.
