That the people of Virginia, in Convention assembled, are firmly opposed to military coercion, open or under disguise, to the Confederated States of the Union by the Federal Government, and that they will not submit to it. 2. That the State of Virginia is willing to wait a reasonable time for the Northern States of the Confederacy to guarantee to Virginia, and her sister Southern States, justice and equality in the Union, based on the principles of the "Crittenden Resolutions," and a protective power in the Constitution for the preservation intact of their just and equal rights. 3.
