Read this excerpt from “The Open Window” by H. H. Munro. What point of view is used in the excerpt?

“My aunt will be down presently, Mr. Nuttel,” said a very self-possessed young lady of fifteen; “in the meantime you must try and put up with me.”

Framton Nuttel endeavoured to say the correct something which should duly flatter the niece of the moment without unduly discounting the aunt that was to come. Privately he doubted more than ever whether these formal visits on a succession of total strangers would do much towards helping the nerve cure which he was supposed to be undergoing.

“I know how it will be,” his sister had said when he was preparing to migrate to this rural retreat; “you will bury yourself down there and not speak to a living soul, and your nerves will be worse than ever from moping. I shall just give you letters of introduction to all the people I know there. Some of them, as far as I can remember, were quite nice.”

A.

first-person point of view

B.

second-person point of view

C.

third-person objective point of view

D.

third-person omniscient point of view

Because in the excerpt third-person omniscient point of view is used as the omniscient narrator knows everything and sees everything. As in this excerpt the omniscient narrator knows what Mr. Nuttel is thinking and the omnipotent narrator even know what his sister has said. This means the omniscient narrator has access to characters consciousness which brings out the element of third-person omniscient point of view.
