"i call not upon a few but upon all—not on this state or that state, but on every state—up and us. . let it be told to the future world that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive, that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet and repulse it." paine's purpose in issuing this plea is to draw attention to the differences that exist among colonists from different states. unite the colonists in support of continuing the fight for independence. encourage the colonists to wait for better times in the spring. warn the colonists of the danger of a british attack during the winter months.

This particular excerpt, derives from one of the two most famous political and rebellious pamphlets written by English-American journalist, activist and revolutionary Thomas Paine, in 1776. A huge supporter of the American Revolution and the need to break off from British control, Paine used his two pamphlets: Common Sense and The American Crisis, as a means to encourage Americans from the 13 colonies to end their ties with the British Crown. Calling upon human rights and the ideals proposed in the Enlightment era, Paine became almost primordial to the American Revolution and is now considered one of the Founding Fathers. Among the many things pushed forth by Paine in his pamphlets, one of the most common, was his insistence to the American people of the need to forgo their differences as individual states, and to unite under one banner and one goal. This is why the correct answer here is: Paine issues this plea as a way to: Unite the colonists in support of continuing the fight for independence.
