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, she's a blessed angel on earth; and after this one night I'll 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

The third-person point of view is a style of narration in which a storyteller uses a third-person pronoun, like "he" or "she," to describe all of the action in their work.

There are two different types of third-person perspectives. A third-person perspective can be omniscient, in which case the author is aware of most of the thoughts and feelings of all the characters in the narrative, or it might be limited. If it's limited, the storyteller only shares his or her own reflections, feelings, and knowledge of various situations and characters. Writing in the third person truly burdens a writer significantly, even if rookie essayists tend to feel most comfortable in the first person. This may be because it seems more common.
