Answer 1

To support the answers to #9 regarding the urgency and inevitability of rebellion in Henry's speech, the most relevant quotations would be:

C. "Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the foot of the throne. In vain, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation."

F. "Our chains are forged. Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston!"

These selections highlight the futility of seeking further reconciliation and emphasize the oppressive circumstances faced by the colonies, thus supporting the call to action.
