Explanation:
In "Resistance to Civil Government," Thoreau uses rhetorical devices in order to convey a powerful message. Initially, he uses logos to show the sensibility of his argument. He explains to us why it is that he believes resistance is important and necessary, and why all citizens have the right to follow their principles and values.
