Answer:
<em>And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the ballot.</em>
Explanation:
Susan B. Anthony's speech "On Women's Right To Vote" invokes the Preamble of the Consitution of the United States about the inclusion of women in its statement <em>"We, the people"</em>. She reiterates that the <em>"we"</em> in the Preamble means not only the men but also the women, and the equality of all genders.
In the given excerpt from her speech, she declares her intention to prove that <em>"voting" </em>is not a crime but a simple <em>"[exercising] of her citizen's rights"</em> guaranteed by the National Constitution. So, it is upon her now to show that she has committed no crime as such as simply doing right by the very rights that the nation has given to everyone.
Thus, the sentence that reveals the purpose of her speech is seen in the last line
<em>And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the ballot.</em>
