Reflections On the Revolution In France

Locate key points in his letter where Burke glorifies institutions that are counter-revolutionary: monarchy, aristocracy, religious, etc. What descriptions are surprisingly sympathetic? Why does Burke think that old things have value?

Do Burke's arguments "work" on us, as Americans, whose own country came about from a revolution and going to war with the British? Why or why not?
