Question

The Bald Man and the Fly
Aesop

A fly bit the bare head of a bald man who, endeavoring to destroy it, gave himself a heavy slap. Escaping, the fly said mockingly, "You who have wished to revenge, even with death, the wingspan of a tiny insect, see what you have done to yourself to add insult to injury?" The bald man replied, "I can easily make peace with myself, because I know there was no intention to hurt. But you, an ill-favored and contemptible insect who delights in sucking human blood, I wish that I could have killed you even if I had incurred a heavier penalty."

Answer 1

Revenge will hurt the avenger.

That means that instead of the story beginning with the words "A fly bit the bare head of a bald man...," the story would begin with the words "I bit the bare head of a bald man..." What would this type of point of view be called?
A)

C)
third person limited point of view
D)
third person omniscient point of view
