If You Have Given Up Your Militia,

You Ought To Be Extremely Cautious, Watchful, Jealous Of Your Liberty; For Instead Of Securing Your Rights, You May Lose Them Forever.

I Know Not What Others May Choose But, As For Me, Give Me Liberty Or Give Me Death.

It Is The Business Of A Virtuous Clergyman To Censure Vice In Every Appearance Of It.

Whether This Will Prove A Blessing Or A Curse, Will Depend Upon The Use Our People Will Make Of The Blessings Which A Gracious God Hath Bestowed On Us. If They Are Wise, They Will Be Great And Happy. If They Are Of A Contrary Character, They Will Be Miserable. Righteousness Alone Can Exalt Them As A Nation. Reader! Whoever Thou Art, Remember This: And In Thy Sphere Practice Virtue Thyself, An Encourage It In Others.

If You Have Given Up Your Militia, And Congress Shall Refuse To Arm Them, You Have Lost Every Thing. Your Existence Will Be Precarious, Because You Depend On Others, Whose Interests Are Not Affected By Your Infelicity.
