What is an emotion that Douglass intends to evoke with the story in this passage?
My master and myself had quite a number of differences. He found me unsuitable to his purpose. My city life,
he said, had had a very pernicious effect upon me. It had almost ruined me for every good purpose, and fitted
me for every thing which was bad. One of my greatest faults was that of letting his horse run away, and go
down to his father-in-law's farm, which was about five miles from St. Michael's. I would then have to go after it.
My reason for this kind of carelessness, or carefulness, was, that I could always get something to eat when I
went there. Master William Hamilton, my master's father-in-law, always gave his slaves enough to eat. I never
left there hungry, no matter how great the need of my speedy return.
