which two parts of this excerpt from incidents in the life of a slave girl by harriet ann jacobs express the view that even “kind” slaveholders regarded their slaves as merely property?

she had promised my dying mother that her children should never suffer for any thing; and when i remembered that, and recalled her many proofs of attachment to me, i could not having some hopes that she had left me free.

…after a brief period of suspense, the will of my mistress was read, and we learned that she had bequeathed me to her sister's daughter, a child of five years old. so vanished our hopes.

…as a child, i loved my mistress; and, looking back on the happy days i spent with her, i try to think with less bitterness of this act of injustice. she possessed but few slaves; and at her death those were all distributed among her relatives. five of them were my grandmother's children, and had shared the same milk that nourished her mother's children. notwithstanding my grandmother's long and faithful service to her owners, not one of her children escaped the auction block.
