Of Rebellion

What I have called Treason is always an act of treachery; and on that account the name of Treachery is strictly competent to it. an a
breach of his frail & most confidential professions: an act which
not which a man would be ashamed to confess
a man can never think of vindicating in public:
an act which a man would be ashamed to confess
to his most intimate acquaintance. Rebellion
in the cases in which it is most common
is not an act of treachery: it is not a
breach of any professions which a man makes
when he is free: for no man but through fear
or interested hope professes to espouse the interests of a single man
though he be a sovereign, to the prejudice of the
whole community.

to obtain the end whatever it be -pose of the war, to humble and disable them from resisting
but neither to extirpate nor to torment them,
to respect their motives and be tender of their interests
at the same time that we take care what
measures seem requisite for securing ourselves
against their attacks, let the same principles
determine the treatment to be given to those
to whom the necessity task of keeping up the established
form of government has made it necessary to
give the name of Rebels.
