For what purpose did the delegates to the constitutional convention originally meet?

The delegates to the Constitutional Convention originally met to reform the Articles of Confederation. The Articles of Confederation were the guidelines for the first national government of the United States. However, they were weak and did not give enough power to the national government so that it was able to hold all of the separate states together. That is why they wanted to reform it.
