ah, distinctly i remember it was in the bleak
december;
and each separate dying ember wrought its ghost
upon the floor.
eagerly i wished the morrow; —vainly i had sought
to borrow
from my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the
lost lenore—
for the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels
name lenore—
nameless here for evermore.

d.3rd person omniscient

The correct answer is A. 1st person

Explanation:

The point of view in a poem like the one presented refers to the voice, character or entity that tells the events and acts as a narrator. In the case of the first-person point of view, this occurs when the narrator is one character who uses the pronoun "I" to tell the events and express his/her feelings. This point of view is the one in the excerpt presented because the narrator is directly involved in the events he describes; also, he uses the pronoun "I" or pronouns derived from it that can be found only in the first-person point of view as in "I remember it was in the bleak December" or "Eagerly I wished the morrow".
