There is no contexual meaning seen for the underlined word in the first sentence.

wrapped <---> swathed (second sentence)

  • Wrapped around his forehead <---> Swathed around his forehead...

The definition of swathe is to wrap in many fabrics.

occupied <---> engaged (third sentence)

  • As you are occupied... <---> As you are engaged...

Engaged can mean to be busy or occupied.

allowed <---> suffered (fourth sentence)

  • I allowed him to hurry me<-->...I suffered him to hurry me...

An archaic meaning of suffered can mean to allow someone to do something.
