3445. GEORGE III., Injuries and usurpations.—
The history of the present King of
Great Britain is a history of [unremitting] [216]
injuries
and usurpations [among which appears
no solitary fact to contradict the uniform tenor
of the rest, but all have] in direct object
the establishment of an absolute tyranny over
these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted
to a candid world [for the truth of which
we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood].—
Declaration of Independence as Drawn by Jefferson.
