. . . .Which words from the first paragraph reveal the story's point of view? *

Question

 It is night, and our old house by the river is finally quiet. The baby has stopped its crying and been soothed back to sleep. Only the gentle lapping of the River Thames can be heard outside my window. London is wrapped in a deep sleep, waiting for the watchman to call in the new day.  I have lit the first of seven candles to write my story by. On the table next to me is the silk purse that holds my mother's pearls, and beside it is the ebony box whose treasure I am only now beginning to understand. Next to that, shining nearly as bright as the moon, stands a pair of silver shoes.  I have a great many things to tell, of how I came by the silver shoes and more.
