Answer 1

Paine is referring to the danger of delaying the formation of an independent American government. He argues that waiting for "time and chance" to determine the future of their government is foolish and risky. He believes it's much wiser to proactively create their own constitution while they have the opportunity, rather than leaving such a crucial matter to unpredictable forces that could result in tyranny.
