Answer: Without placing too implicit faith in the account above given, it must be agreed, that if a worthy pretext for so dangerous an experiment as setting houses on fire (especially in these days) could be assigned in favor of any culinary object, that pretext and excuse might be found in roast pig.

This is the sentence that encourages the reader to take a position on the text. The passage describes how people used to burn whole houses in order to cook pigs, until they discovered that pigs did not need that much fire in order to be cooked. By the end of the passage, the author argues that pig is a food worthy enough of causing a house to be burnt down. The way in which we know that the author is trying to persuade us is by the use of the phrase <em>"it must be agreed.</em>"
