"O sinner! Consider the fearful danger you are in: it is a great furnace of wrath, a wide and bottomless pit, full of fire of wrath, voked and incensed a much against you, as against many of the damned in hell. You hang by a slender thread, with the flames of divine wrath flashing about it and ready every moment to singe it and burn it asunder, and you have...nothing to keep off the flames of wrath, nothing of your own, nothing that you have ever done, nothing that you can do to induce God to spare you one moment." Would this be described as 1st person, 2nd person, or 3rd person.

Thank you! @BRUH78 @malcolmmcswain

Hi @Mitchi35! First take a guess. What can you definitely rule out.

OpenStudy (mitchi35):

Hello! Thank you! ummmm, 3rd person?

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Remember, first person means it is from the person who is describing the story's point of view. third person: point of view from a narrarator or onlooker second person: point of view from you, yet told by the narrarator.

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

It's actually Second person because in this passage, it uses words like "you"

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

First person example: "I opened the door" Second person example: "You opened the door" Third person example: "He opened the door"

OpenStudy (mitchi35):

oh! So 2nd person point of view. Than very much! ^_^
