Read the following short passage.

i started for school very late that morning and was in great dread of a scolding, especially because m. hamel had said that he would question us on participles, and i did not know the first word about them. for a moment, i thought of running away and spending the day out of doors. it was so warm, so bright! the birds were chirping at the edge of the woods; and in the open field back of the sawmill the prussian soldiers were drilling. it was all much more tempting than the rule for participles, but i had the strength to resist, and hurried off to school.

when i passed the town hall there was a crowd in front of the bulletin board. for the last two years all our bad news had come from there—the lost battles, the draft, the orders of the commanding officer—and i thought to myself, without stopping:

"what can be the matter now? "

which point of view is used in this excerpt?
