Which two sentences in this excerpt from incidents in the life of a slave girl demonstrate how harriet ann jacobs uses a narrative structure and conversational tone to directly appeal to her readers’ sympathy? with all these thoughts revolving in my mind, and seeing no other way of escaping the doom i so much dreaded, i made a headlong plunge. pity me, and pardon me, o virtuous reader! you never knew what it is to be a slave; to be entirely unprotected by law or custom; to have the laws reduce you to the condition of a chattel, entirely subject to the will of another. you never exhausted your ingenuity in avoiding the snares, and eluding the power of a hated tyrant; you never shuddered at the sound of his footsteps, and trembled within hearing of his voice. i know i did wrong. no one can feel it more sensibly than i do. the painful and humiliating memory will haunt me to my dying day. still, in looking back, calmly, on the events of my life, i feel that the slave woman ought not to be judged by the same standard as others.
