DOCUMENT C - Isaac Wilkins - “Before I Leave America”
The letter below was published by Loyalist Isaac Wilkins in the New York Gazetteer on May 11, 1775.

My Countrymen,

BEFORE I leave America, the land I love, and in which is contained everything that is valuable and dear to me, my wife, my children, my friends and property; permit me to make a short and faithful declaration...God is my judge, and God is my witness, that all I have done, written or said in relation to the present unnatural dispute between Great Britain and her Colonies proceeded from an honest intention of serving my country. Her welfare and prosperity were the objects towards which all my endeavors have been directed. They still are the sacred objects which I shall ever steadily and invariably keep in view. And when in England, all the influence that so inconsiderable a man as I am can have, shall be exerted in her behalf.

It has been my constant maxim [a general rule or truth] through life to do my duty conscientiously [with a lot of care or effort], and to trust the issue of my actions to the Almighty. ...I leave America, and every endearing connection, because I will not raise my hand against my Sovereign—nor will I draw my sword against my Country. When I can conscientiously draw it in her favor, my life shall be cheerfully devoted to her service.

Read the passage from Plato’s Republic.

Who are to be our rulers? First, the elder must rule the younger; and the best of the elders will be the best guardians. Now they will be the best who love their subjects most, and think that they have a common interest with them in the welfare of the state. These we must select; but they must be watched . . . to see whether they have retained the same opinions and held out against force and enchantment. For time and persuasion and the love of pleasure may enchant a man into a change of purpose, and the force of grief and pain may compel him. And therefore our guardians must be men who have been tried by many tests . . . and have been passed first through danger, then through pleasure, and at every age have come out of such trials victorious . . . in full command of themselves and their principles; having all their faculties in harmonious exercise for their country's good.

–The Republic, Plato
