D - It convinced the delegates that going to war was disloyal to the King and could cost them their lives.

Patrick Henry aimed to convince them to secede from attacking Britian as it could have most definitely resulted in a large loss of men for battle, however Henry also included the idea of being disloyal to the King to strengthen the argument a whole lot more and so comes the famous quote. If we do this, we will have death but if we don't, we will have liberty.

Hope this helps :)))
