-He tries to explain the experience of living a life, the difficulties, etc.

"I have been frequently asked how I felt when I found myself in a free state. I have never been able to answer the question with any satisfaction to myself." as said in the passage. there are a few other sentences that could.In the case of this text, we have several of those metaphors, or symbolic words and sentences that underline what Frederick Douglass wants to convey through his text. "..I felt as one may imagine the unarmed mariner to feel when he is rescued by a friendly-man-of-war from the pursuit of a pirate", "I said I felt like one who had escaped a den of hungry lions.", "There I was in the midst of thousands, and yet a perfect stranger...", "Children of a common Father", "Money-loving kidnappers whose business it was to lie in wait for the panting fugitive", "As the ferocious bests of the forest lie in wait for their pray."Douglass uses a lot of metaphorical sentences simply to increase the sensation of readers that this man was really facing a very difficult time, that his struggles to manage to make people understand the importance of slavery abolition had been extreme, so extreme that they made him feel as "an unarmed mariner". These metaphors press on the reader the urgency, and also the desperation felt by Douglass, the terrible hardships he had to face even though he was no longer a slave himself. It also presses forward the concept of people´s insensibility towards the needs and sufferings of others: "There I was in the midst of thousands, and yet a perfect stranger; without home and without friends, in the midst of thousands of my own brethren..."

Answer:

The answer is, Third-Person Point of View.

Explanation:

There are three different points of view. Point of view is the perspective of the narrator or character in a story.

There is the First-person point of view, second-person point of view and the third-person point of view.

The first-person point of view is usually marked by the use of "I". In this case, you are understanding the story from the narrator's perspective. The narrator also is usually a character in the story and this serves as a first hand account.

Second-person point of view view isn't that commonly used and is marked by the use of "you". It gives the illusion of the narrator speaking directly to the reader.

The third-person point of view as in this poem is marked by the use of "he", "she", "they". The third person point of view may be from a character in the story or from an omniscient perspective where the person knows what's going to happen and seems to be looking down and observing the characters.

In this poem, the third-person point of view is shown by the use of "they". Despite the use of "I" initially, as you read further, you see that the point of view even tends to the omniscient perspective as he seems to know their emotion shown in "In joy they fled before the wind".

Also, it is an account describing other characters in the poem without seeming to be in the story itself. This solidifies it as the third-person point of view.
