Quote 1. Douglass writes, "that voice, made all of sweet accord, changed to one of harsh and horrid discord; and that angelic face gave place to that of a demon". Douglass is showing how Mrs. Auld completely changed under the influence of slavery. He is also showing how Mrs.Auld went from being happy to mad or upset all the time and how slavery ruined her life.

Quote 2. Douglass writes, "Under its influence, the tender heart became stone, and the lamb like disposition gave way to one of tiger-like fierceness"]]> 2019-02-25 13:29:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lganesha/9h83v5e8vlhd/wish/334825255 lganesha https://padlet.com/lganesha/9h83v5e8vlhd/wish/334826159 His second point was that slavery was terrible for slaves

his gory victim, seemed to move his iron heart from its
bloody purpose." Excerpt 1
Quote 2. Douglass writes, "i was broken in mind, body, and spirit. My natural elasticity was crushed, my intellect languished, the disposition to read departed, the cheerful spark that lingered
about my eye died. Behold a man transformed into a brute.".  Excerpt 4

at saving-fodder time, midnight often caught us in the field
binding blades." Excerpt 4

Douglass shows this through his life experiences and using figurative language . Douglass  was a self taught slave and he could share his own experience; therefor, his narrative was different than others. His life experiences were very important because no one else would be able to help the reader clearly understand what slavery is doing. Fredrick Douglass's Narrative opened many people's eyes to the horrors of slavery and this really helped end it. Without Douglass slavery might have still existed today and a lot of people would lose their freedom because slavery might have still existed today.]]> 2019-02-25 13:34:17 UTC https://padlet.com/lganesha/9h83v5e8vlhd/wish/334827752
