PLS HELP! 20 pointsss!!!

Prompt
Read the passage from A Confederate Girl's Diary by Sarah Morgan Dawson. Then, respond to the writing prompt.
"The North Cannot subdue us. We are too determined to be free. They have no right to confiscate our property to pay debts
they themselves have incurred. Death as a nation, rather than Union on such terms. We will have our rights secured on so
firm a basis that it can never be shaken. If by power of overwhelming numbers they conquer us, it will be a barren victory
over a desolate land.
We, the natives of this loved soil, will be beggars in a foreign land; we will not submit to despotism under the garb of Liberty
The North will find herself burdened with an unparalleled debt, with nothing to show for it except deserted towns, burning
homes, a standing army which will govern with no small caprice, and an impoverished land.
If that be treason, make the best of it!"
-A Confederate Girl's Diary
Sarah Morgan Dawson
