Question

“Howe is now weaker than before, and every shot will contribute to reduce him. You are more immediately interested than any other part of the continent: your all is at stake; it is not so with the general cause; you are devoted by the enemy to plunder and destruction: it is the encouragement which Howe, the chief of plunderers, has promised his army.”

Why is the repetition of “you” in this sentence an effective rhetorical technique?

Answer 1

It is an effective technique, because the reader has more interest in the story, and the point of view is very interesting in the case of the story.
