Answer:

Slavery evokes “mad passions” whose effect on the soul are as bad as intemperance

Explanation:

In an extended metaphor comparing slavery to intemperance, Stanton explains what she means when she says slavery “is intemperance.” Slavery brings out the worst, most extreme feelings and behaviors, or “mad passions,” as she calls them, just as intemperate, or uncontrolled, alcohol use does.
