Question

which point of view does the narrator use in the passage? mr. campbell, the minister of essendean, was waiting for me by the garden gate, good man! he asked me if i had breakfasted; and hearing that i lacked for nothing, he took my hand in both of his and clapped it kindly under his arm. from robert louis stevenson, kidnapped first person second person third person

Explanation:

To determine the narrator's point of view, we analyze the pronouns used. The passage contains the pronoun "I" (e.g., "he asked me if I had breakfasted"), which is a key indicator of first - person point of view. First - person point of view is when the narrator tells the story from their own perspective, using pronouns like "I" and "me". Second - person uses "you", and third - person uses "he", "she", "they" (referring to others). Since "I" is used here, the point of view is first person.

Answer:

first person
