The correct answer is 2. It came to oppress, to punish, to scorch.

Explanation

Parallelism is a literary figure that consists of the repetition of the same structure several times in the same sentence, making small changes to it. According to the above, the sentence of the passage that uses parallelism is 2. "It came to oppress, to punish, to scorch" because it repeats the word "to" several times and changes the verb that follows it.
