Answer:

D. Controlled.

Explanation:

In his speech to the Virginia Convention which have now become famously known as the "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death", Patrick Henry implored on the authorities or delegates of the convention to secede from being under the authority of the British. He points why America needs to go to war against its colonizers, to fight for freedom and government, without the need to be governed by a foreign nation.

In the given passage taken from the speech, he questions whether they (Americans) are restless and uncontrollable that they cannot be organized and work together. He wonders why the use of force is the only way they can be "<em>called"</em> to work together to free their nation from the clutches of the English. The word <em>"reconciled" </em>here means "controlled", which is what Henry thinks is why they need to be forced to work together for their liberty.
