Does anybody know the answer to "There was a rustling of dresses, and the standing congregation sat down. The boy whose history this book relates did not enjoy the prayer, he only endured it-if he even did that much. He was restive all through it; he kept tally of the details of the prayer, unconsciously-for he was not listening, but he knew the ground of old, and the clergyman's regular route over it-and when a little trifle of new matter was interlarded, his ear detected it and his whole nature resented it; he considered additions unfair, and scoundrelly."Based on the information provided in this excerpt, how would you characterize Tom?

What rhetorical effect does the personification pf the word prudence have in the following excerpt from the Declaration of Independence

Answers

"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed."

I am assuming that the above quote is the excerpt of this question. 

By giving the term "prudence" a personality, the Declaration of Independence calls for people to practice or exercise the virtue of prudence.

Prudence is synonymous to good judgement. Thus, people should exercise good judgement before changing things in the government that will have a long-term result based on a short-term idea that may change in any given time.
