Read this excerpt from the passage. This mark is conferred on the person entitled to it, by cutting the skin across at the top o

f the forehead, and drawing it down to the eye-brows; and while it is in this situation applying a warm hand, and rubbing it until it shrinks up into a thick weal across the lower part of the forehead. Most of the judges and senators were thus marked; my father had long born it: I had seen it conferred on one of my brothers, and I was also destined to receive it by my parents.

Answer:

The author sees this as a respected tradition that is made to the Embrace.  

Explanation:

We can see that the author sees the mark and the process of its making as a tradition that he respects. We can identify his point of view in the last lines when he says, " my father had long born it: I had seen it conferred on one of my brothers, and I was also destined to receive it by my parents.". What he means is that different generations in a  group of people, which included judges and senators, were marked. We see that he respects this tradition since there are no negative comments or opposition regarding his mark or throughout the excerpt.

Being struck by the strap of the lupercal priests meant what for women
allsm [11]
It isn't certain, but since the strap was usually made of goat-skin, it could have been a symbol of fertility. By striking the women (often on the wrists) with it, it was said to ensure fertility, easy childbirth, and good health for them.
