Answer 2

I am absolutely sure that these lines from the Declaration of Independence are an example of the use of purpose. I consider this option as a correct one becaue, according to the definition of the purpose as a literary device, it is a tool which expresses the reason which author wrote a particular article and so on. As for me, this option is the most suitable.
Hope that will help!
