Question

In at least 250 words, explain the difference in tone between The Declaration of Independence and The Bill of Rights. Use evidence from both texts to support your response.

Answer 1

Answer:

"The tone of the documents differ since the Declaration of Independence is shorter and it is like a story since it just describes the rights that everyone should have, and how the king of England, by coming to the United States had not given them the rights that they deserved."(enotes) It also contained quite a bit of content that talked about religion. An example of this would be, "..endowed by the creator.." which had a long list of things the king has violated. However, The Bill of Rights has a monotone tone that just states the amendments and what those amendments are. Unlike the declaration of independence, it also has legal rights.
