Are you trying to say that these excerpts are representative of the Slave Narratives?

Did you think so? There are thousands of narratives, and many are similar. I simply searched for 'frolic'.

Doesn't make the oppression any less horrible.

I guess I shouldn't post the one by Aunt Charity Andersen, where she wished for the old days of slavery? Or the ones where the slaves talk about their love for their masters, or the ones where they earned monies?

Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.

Yep, slavery was a thrill-a-minute. I hear that white children are considered special treats, so maybe you can sell your kids overseas and let them enjoy the wonders of slavery. /sarcasm
