Repetition to drive home the number of injustices and usurpations enacted by the British king, and the worthiness of the American cause of independence.
The goal of the Excerpt from the Declaration of Independence is to articulate the colonies' reasons for seeking independence from British rule. It emphasizes the principles of individual rights, particularly life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and asserts that governments derive their power from the consent of the governed. By declaring these ideals, the document aims to justify the colonies' break from Britain and to inspire a sense of unity and purpose among the American people. Ultimately, it serves as a foundational statement of American values and democracy.

Thomas Jefferson most notably uses parallelism in this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence. He repeats the phrase "He has" to list a series of grievances against King George III. By using parallelism, Jefferson creates a powerful and persuasive effect, emphasizing the injustices committed by the King and strengthening the argument for independence.
The excerpt reflects the principle of individual liberty, a key idea of the Enlightenment. This principle emphasized the rights and freedoms of individuals, including personal autonomy and the protection of basic human rights.
