well I think the answers you are looking for are:
1.) looked
2.) left
Perhaps Dunbar uses the image of a mask as wearing a face allows us to conceal our face - enabling us to hide any expression or emotion. In his poem, he mentions how black people felt the need to appear as content or happy when surrounded by people who were white - especially when they felt the opposite. The mask represents the false expressions the blacks had to wear.
Besides stating that the correct answer is the first one (the church lost some of the influence it had during the height of the French Revolution), here is the explanation to better grasp the concept:
The Concordat of 1801, is an agreement signed on July 15th, between Napoleon, and the church representatives, in Rome and Paris.
This agreement defined the position of the Roman Catholic Church in France, put an end to the rupture caused by the reforms carried out by the church, and the confiscations that took place during the French Revolution.
This agreement, gave the first Consul (Napoleon), the right to nominate bishops, and new seminaries were established.
Yes with having a friend by your side you can overcome everything.so it’s both.
