Jesse wrote the following paragraph for his rhetorical analysis of the Elizabeth Cady Stanton's "Declaration of Sentiments." Which sentence did Jesse add because he knew some of his audience would not be familiar with the legal context of the text?

The author's use of ethos becomes clear as she notes that, under the law, a woman is "morally, an irresponsible being." She explains that a woman "can commit many crimes, with impunity, provided they be done in the presence of her husband." At the time, men were responsible for punishing their wives if the wives committed certain crimes. This evidence supports her idea that women should have equal treatment under the law, because depriving women of equal rights under the law also deprives them of equal accountability under the law.
