Answer:

The correct answer is Paine describes his anger over the king's lack of response to Lexington.

Explanation:

In this except Common Sense, the most famous pamphlet form the American Revolution obviously stresses out that king didn't do anything after the massacre itself, and that he has conscience, because he is sleeping with the blood of the people that died at Lexington on his soul.

Other answers are wrong because he doesn't believe in the reconciliation with Britain anymore and other answers are not related to this text also.
