You did not provide the excerpt but in the end Jekyll was not able to permanently resist. It was implied that he was actually Hyde deep inside and that Hyde is the one who will overtake and he won't be able to come out again. In the end he dies as Hyde and people find out what happened out of letters that he sent while he was sane.
Answer:
Third-person point of view
Explanation:
In third person narrative style, pronouns such as "he," "she," "him," "her," "his," and "them.", etc are used. This point of view is very common and tells the story from the perspective of the person speaking or telling the story or narration.
Therefore, from the given excerpt, the point of view that is used is third-person point of view/narrative.
I believe the answer is: A. "I am sorry," he said, and patted me on the shoulder with his good hand. "I would not be rude. My wife has just died. You must forgive me."
The word resign indicates accepting some sort of feeling or situation that cannot be ignored or pushed aside. From the sentences in option A, we can infer that the reader already accept the fact that his wife has died and acknowledge that his emotion is influenced by it.
