by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
And saying this, [Don Quixote] spurred his horseRocinante without heeding what his squire Sanchowas shouting to him, that he was attacking windmillsand not giants. But he was so certain they weregiants that he paid no attention to his squireSancho’s shouts, nor did he see what they were,even though he was very close. Rather, he went onshouting: “Do not flee, cowards and vile creatures,for it’s just one knight attacking you!”

If Sancho were the narrator, the point of view would become third person limited. This is because Sancho, as a squire, would provide insights into his thoughts and feelings about Don Quixote's actions and perspective, but not necessarily into the thoughts and feelings of Don Quixote or other characters. This would limit the narrative to Sancho's experience and understanding of the events rather than providing an omniscient view.
