 Frederick Douglass's narrative is a biography of his own life when he was a young slave living in Baltimore. He expresses that he felt fortunate to live in the city, instead of living in plantations, since by living in the city, he was treated better and it was an easier place to escape freedom. In the countryside, slaves were often brutally whipped and rarely given enough food or clothing. However, slave owners in the city would have been ashamed that their neighbors had seen their slaves without food or clothing. In the city, Douglass learns to read and meets a wide variety of people who help him on his path to freedom: white children who help him learn to read and write, sailors who teach him a trade, and people of the North, that make him see that not all whites own slaves.

Which two of these excerpts from Homer’s Odyssey depict the gods’ involvement in mortal affairs?
Elan Coil [88]
I am pretty sure about the second excerpt, it directly shows gods' involvement in mortal affairs
Then thus Minerva in Laertes' ear:"Son of Arcesius, reverend warrior, hear!Jove and Jove's daughter first implore in prayer,Then, whirling high, discharge thy lance in air."
And I believe that the next correct answer is
“But, tell me who thou art? and what thy race?
Thy town, thy parents, and thy native place?
Or, if a merchant in pursuit of gain,
What port received thy vessel from the main?
Or comest thou single, or attend thy train?”
