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."

What is a Third-person limited viewpoint?

Third-person limited narratives are much more prevalent in contemporary fiction than omniscient narrators. They introduce distinctive characteristics to one‘s narratives that have made this point of view perennially popular within and between both writers and readers alike.

The third-person limited makes it possible to focus on the internal dynamics of one character at a moment, letting you fully develop the character. This can happen not only by what they say but also by how you classify everything that happens to them.

The incorporation of the third person limited allows the audience to make the same mistake that Elizabeth Bennett does with Mr. Darcy. Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
