The original purpose of the Bill of Rights was to give the people their natural rights and to restrict the power of the national government.

The original purpose of the Bill of Rights was to restrict the power of the national government. To confirm this, you can refer to historical documents, such as the Federalist Papers and the debates during the ratification of the Constitution. These sources discuss the concerns of some Founding Fathers and other advocates for individual liberties who wanted to ensure that the new federal government did not infringe upon the rights of individuals and states. The Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution in 1791 to provide protection for individual rights and to limit the powers of the federal government.
