This question refers to the first soliloquy in the play "Everyman." A soliloquy is a speech that is made by a character who is alone on stage. A soliloquy can be either addressed to the audience or consist of spoken thought.
In this soliloquy, we see that Everyman is feeling guilty and repentant about his situation. Everyman has pursued material goods his whole life, and has ignored the importance of good deeds. However, Everyman will get the opportunity, as the play develops, to improve his situation and make up for his mistakes.
The tone Tony should use in his letter is the following one:
Objective and respectful.
His letter is addressed to a senator, a member of the government. Therefore, it is vital that Tony shows respect. At the same time, Tony must be objective, since the subject he speaks of is a very serious issue which has to be discussed in a very clear way, so Tony is able to make a point.
As history changes, and people/nations evolve, it becomes necessary for them to be independent of any other country/power on which they relied. They feel the need to break those connections that bound them, and to finally emerge as a country of its own, a country which doesn't need to count on others in order to thrive and prosper. God has given everyone equal rights, and thus no country has more rights than any other. This newly founded country will become respectable through its own effort, and not through the help/or the dominion of another country. The Americans felt impelled to separate from their mother country, Britain, and eventually create a dream of their own.
All men are equal - God has given them those unalienable right
My teacher was audible when he gave the directions.
