Besides, what could they see but a hideous and desolate wilderness, full of wild beasts and wild men-and what multitude there might be of them they knew not...they could have little solace (meaning "peace") or content in respect of any outward objects." (William Bradford, Of Plymouth Plantation: Book1, Chapter IX) The perspective (meaning "point of view") of the preceding passage is: first person second person third person
The clue is in the pronouns. Which one do you think it is?
I would guess third person
That's right! If it is in first person, 'I/me/my' would be used. In second person, 'you/your', and in third, it is 'he/his/she/hers/they/theirs'. Good job!
Thank you
You're welcome! :) Have a great day/night/whatever!
