The author of an essay quotes the Preamble of the Constitution but omits a part in the middle and only uses a portion of the quotation rather than the whole thing. How would this be punctuated?
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice … do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice—do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, [omitted] do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, (etc.) do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
