“Howe is now weaker than before, and every shot will contribute to reduce him. You are more immediately interested than any othe

r part of the continent: your all is at stake; it is not so with the general cause; you are devoted by the enemy to plunder and destruction: it is the encouragement which Howe, the chief of plunderers, has promised his army.”

A. It evokes a sense of guilt in readers that they have not been giving enough to the American war effort.
B. It reminds readers that they each have a personal interest in America’s success in the war.
C. It evokes a sense of panic because the British are advancing on American interests.
D. It reminds readers that colonists who oppose American independence will be held personally responsible if the colonists lose.

<span>B. It reminds readers that they each have a personal interest in America’s success in the war.

It says "You" a bunch of times, and "</span>you are devoted by the enemy to plunder and destruction" by "<span> Howe, the chief of plunderers" (which was their enemy at the time".

This means that, because they do not want to be plundered & that they can gain things if the revolution is successful, they will want to support the cause & fight for the rebellion.

hope this helps</span>
