i suffered more anxiety than most of my fellow-slaves. i had known what it was to be kindly treated; they had known nothing of the kind. they had seen little or nothing of the world. they were in very deed men and women of sorrow, and acquainted with grief. their backs had been made familiar with the bloody lash, so that they had become callous; mine was yet tender; for while at baltimore, i got few whippings, and few slaves could boast of a kinder master and mistress than myself; . .

Explanation:

The excerpt as a whole talks about how different life was for Frederick Douglass when to compared to other slaves. Douglass found kindness in the world, while the others only new grief and suffering. Yet, according to him, that made him suffer more, but in a different way, and become anxious, maybe restless for change and equality. The others, who didn't even dream of that possibility were, somehow, more peaceful in their pain.

Therefore, as we can see, the whole passage revolves around hardships and suffering. Many words help convey that idea, but we are looking for the ones that create imagery. Imagery happens when the writer employs words with the purpose of appealing to the reader's senses. The reader is, thus, able to imagine a certain scenery, action, smell, or even a sound from the way it is described in the text. In this excerpt, the words "callous" and "bloody" are appealing to readers' senses of sight, touch, and even smell. Sight would be the main one, since readers can see the blood on the whip and the marks on the slaves' backs. They could also picture what it would feel like to touch the callous scars, or to smell the blood.

to create suspense.
