Thomas Paine (1737-1809) was a British writer and political philosopher. Paine supported the American revolution, claiming in his writings that England had no right to subjugate the American colonies.
That is, as a matter of fact, the theme of the passage we are analyzing here. Paine uses words such as "slavery", "devils", and "murderer" in order to convey feelings of anger and injustice. What England wants for itself and America is an owner-slave relationship. In doing so, the king of England is acting in a way that is not appeasing to God, an evil way. The king is, according to Paine, just like a regular thief or murderer.
As we can see, Paine is appealing to the readers' emotion, to their sense of justice, to convey his point. The same way that having one's house broken into by a burglar is enough to make anyone angry, so should be having your country broken into.
