Question

read the following short passage. so they parted; and the young man pursued his way until, being about to turn the corner by the meeting - house, he looked back and saw the head of faith still peeping after him with a melancholy air, in spite of her pink ribbons. \poor little faith!\ thought he, for his heart smote him. \what a wretch am i to leave her on such an errand! she talks of dreams, too. i thought as she spoke there was trouble in her face, as if a dream had warned her what work is to be done to - night. but no, no; t would kill her to think it. well, shes a blessed angel on earth; and after this one night ill cling to her skirts and follow her to heaven.\ which point of view is used in this excerpt? first person second person third - person limited third - person omniscient

Explanation:

The passage uses third - person pronouns like "he" and "she". It focuses on the thoughts and feelings of one character (the young man), not all characters as in third - person omniscient. It's not first person (no "I" from the main character speaking directly) or second person (no "you"). So it's third - person limited.

Answer:

C. Third - person limited
