That to secure these rights, governmentsare instituted among them, deriving their just power from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than t right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity, which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is usurpations, all having in direct object tyranny over these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.亚伯拉罕·林肯，1863年11月19日87年前，我们的先辈们在这个大陆上创立了一个新国家，它孕育于自由之中，奉行一切人生来平等的原则。

林肯葛底斯堡演说中英文对照翻译林肯的讲话是极简短、朴素的。

这往往使那些滔滔不绝的讲演家瞧不起。

葛底斯堡战役后，决定为死难烈士举行盛大葬礼。

掩葬委员会发给总统一张普通的请帖，他们以为他是不会来的，但林肯答应了。

既然总统来，那一定要讲演的，但他们已经请了著名演说家艾佛瑞特来做这件事，因此，他们又给林肯写了信，说在艾佛瑞特演说完毕之后，他们希望他“随便讲几句适当的话”。

林肯平静地接受了。

两星期内，他在穿衣、刮脸、吃点心时也想着怎样演说。

演说稿改了两三次，他仍不满意。

到了葬礼的前一天晚上，还在做最后的修改，然后半夜找到他的同僚高声朗诵。

走进会场时，他骑在马上仍把头低到胸前默想着演说辞。

那位艾佛瑞特讲演了两个多小时，将近结束时，林肯不安地掏出旧式眼镜，又一次看他的讲稿。

他的演说开始了，一位记者支上三角架准备拍摄照片，等一切就绪的时候，林肯已走下讲台。

这段时间只有两分钟，而掌声却持续了10分钟。

后人给以极高评价的这份演说辞，在今天译成中文，也不过400字。

林肯的这篇演说是演说史上著名的篇章，其思想的深刻、行文的严谨、语言的冼练，不愧是彪炳青史的大手笔。

尤其是其中的第二段，其语义的承转，结构的安排，甚至包括句式的使用，无一不是极尽推敲之作。
