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.

Talja [164]

The scholars know that the Indo-Aryans was once raised cattle and depended upon their milk but later turned to agriculture for they found evidence in the Vendidad where it shows the importance of sheep and cattle-rearing and their agricultural activities was considerably developed.
