Passage A: (From Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave by Frederick Douglass)
"Sunday was my only leisure time. I spent this in a sort of beast-like stupor (meaning "daze"), between sleep and wake, under some large tree. At times I would rise up, a flash of
energetic freedom would dart through my soul, accompanied with a faint beam of hope, that flickered for a moment, and then vanished. I sank down again, mourning over my wretched
(miserable) condition."
Passage B: (From The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain)
"It was awful thoughts, and awful words, but they was said. And I let them stay said, and never thought no more about reforming. I shoved the whole thing out of my head, and said
would take up wickedness again, which was in my line, being brung up to it, and the other warnt. And for a starter, I would go to work and steal Jim out of slavery again; and if I could
think up anything worse, I would do that, too; because as long as I was in, and in for good, I might as well go the whole hog."

Read the passage from a vindication of the rights of woman. that the society is formed in the wisest manner, whose constitution is founded on the nature of man, strikes, in the abstract, every thinking being so forcibly, that it looks like presumption to endeavour to bring forward proofs; though proof must be brought, or the strong hold of prescription will never be forced by reason; yet to urge prescription as an argument to justify the depriving men (or women) of their natural rights, is one of the absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense. does wollstonecraft maintain an objective tone in the passage? yes, because she uses objective language such as “society is formed in the wisest manner.” yes, because she uses objective language such as “it looks like presumption to endeavor.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “though proof must be brought, or the strong hold.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense.”
