The author compares this feeling of oddity with the idea of a broken musical instrument, which leads him to say that the world was "out of tune." This comparison is useful because an instrument that works produces beautiful music, while a broken one only produces sad and confusing noise.

Answer:

Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God. Whether the independence of the continent was declared too soon, or delayed too long, I will not now enter into as an argument; my own simple opinion is, that had it been eight months earlier, it would have been much better.
