He uses various rhetorical means of proving his claims such as appealing to emotions. He presents the case of the King's behavior in such a way that is supposed to elicit an emotional response from the reader and motivate them to support the rebellion. Not only that but it is also masked as common sense so as to make it seem sensible.
