The correct answer is A) Virginia Declaration of Rights.
The influence of the Declaration of Independence that most closely matches the wording and meaning of the Preamble is the Virginia Declaration of Rights.
The Preamble of the Declaration of Independence serves as an introduction of the formal text or executive summary, and the purpose of the document.
The Virginia Declaration of Rights was drafted in 1776 and adopted by the 5th Virginian Convention at Williamsburg. It expressed the rights of men. It was a different document than the Constitution of the state. The Virginia Declaration of Rights influenced not only the Declaration of Independence but the Bill Of Rights of 1789.
