How is henry's experience as a lawyer reflected in his argument

For the answer to the question above, t he speech is an exercise in prudence, and it, therefore, teaches us something about prudence. It involves complex political judgments, and it cannot be reduced to a simple formula.

Henry, however, suggested that a prudent regard for "experience" taught in this case the need for bold, immediate action. All of the colonists’ experience, he argued, showed that further argument with the British would be fruitless. The government of Great Britain was preparing to use force to bring the colonies to heel, and so prudence rejected further delays and called instead for immediate resistance-before the British force in America grew so strong that such resistance would become impossible.
