Answer:

Respect

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is referring to the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. Frederick Douglass was an ex-slaves who later managed to climbed his way up to become a statesman.

In his recollection, he mentioned 2 men who were put in-charge of him during his slavery days. Those two men were Mr.Severe and Mr.Hopkins.

He said that Mr. Severe was a cruel men. He often beat the slaves for no reason and always talk to the slaves in a demeaning attitudes. Mr. Hopkins on the other hand, was a different man. Douglass said that hopkin was strict, but never took pleasure in hurting the Slaves like Mr. Severe. This is why he respected Hopkins.
