Which mode of narration is used in this excerpt from Daisy Miller by Henry James?(except below)A. First PersonB. Third Person OmniscientC. Second PersonD. Third Person LimitedThe young lady inspected her flounces and smoothed her ribbons again; and Winterbourne presently risked an observation upon the beauty of the view. He was ceasing to be embarassed, for he had begun to perceive that she was not in the least embarrassed herself.
