1775. Which sentence in the excerpt suggests that Patrick Henry believed the resources available to the colonists were adequate to engage in armed resistance against Britain?1. Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?2. Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.3. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.4. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave.5. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest.

Answer:

2.

Explanation:

In his famous speech '<u>Give me liberty or give me death</u>,' Patrick Henry urged the American Colonies to fight against England for freedom. The speech was delivered on 23rd March 1775 to the Second Virginia Convention. The speech was highly rhetorical.

The sentence that suggests the belief of Henry in the sufficiency of armed forces to the colonists is the second option.

<u><em>"Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power."</em></u>

The word 'means' is used to refer to the armed resources that Henry believed to be bestowed by God of nature to them.

So, the correct answer is option 2.
