Answer:
As Europe is our market for trade, we ought to form no partial connection with any part of it.
Explanation:
This excerpt from "Common Sense" conveys two main ideas:
1. Dependant on Britain, America can never make strong economy, prosperous society and peaceful future
2. America must be neutral in relations to European countries.
Europe is here seen as a "market for trade" and Paine concludes that making connections with one country can disrupt the market in case of a war, which is, according to him, inevitable.
He sees geopolitical situation in Europe as unstable, so he advocates neutrality. Also, true neutrality can never be achieved without independence from Britain.
