Select the correct answer.
Read these two excerpts from “No Compromise with the Evil of Slavery” by William Lloyd Garrison. How are the writer’s arguments in the two excerpts different?

Excerpt 1
I am a believer in that portion of the Declaration of American Independence in which it is set forth, as among self-evident truths, "that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Hence, I am an abolitionist. Hence, I cannot but regard oppression in every form and most of all, that which turns a man into a thing with indignation and abhorrence.

Excerpt 2
Convince me that one man may rightfully make another man his slave, and I will no longer subscribe to the Declaration of Independence. Convince me that liberty is not the inalienable birthright of every human being, of whatever complexion or clime, and I will give that instrument to the consuming fire. I do not know how to espouse freedom and slavery together. I do not know how to worship God and Mammon at the same time. If other men choose to go upon all fours, I choose to stand erect, as God designed every man to stand. If, practically falsifying its heaven-attested principles, this nation denounces me for refusing to imitate its example, then, adhering all the more tenaciously to those principles, I will not cease to rebuke it for its guilty inconsistency.

A.
The first excerpt refers to a historical document, while the second excerpt does not.
B.
The first excerpt presents facts, while the second excerpt contains opinions.
C.
The first excerpt makes a logical appeal, while the second excerpt makes an emotional appeal.
D.
The first excerpt presents opinions, while the second excerpt makes a logical appeal.
