B Bradford describes gods providnece for settlers

Answer 2

The correct answer is option B) "Bradford described God's providence for the settlers, while Rowlandson described her renewal of faith".

Step-by-step explanation:

Both "Of Plymouth Plantation" by William Bradford, and "A Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration" by Mrs. Mary Rowlandson describe God's involvement in favoring the protagonists who were suffering precarious situations. The difference between the books, is that Bradford describe God's providence for the settlers by stating the words "they fell upon their knees & blessed ye God of heaven... and delivered them from all ye periles & miseries therof", while Rowlandson's described a renewal of faith, returning all the miseries the protagonist suffered to a blessing or doing of God by stating that humans do not have a choice but to accept the will of God.
