I believe this question has the 4 following choices to choose the answer from:

In both poems, the speakers consider themselves insignificant.

In both poems, the speakers express a great deal of pride.

In both poems, the speakers express humility before a larger and greater force.

In both poems, the speakers express great doubt as to their abilities.

Among the choices given, the third choice is the correct one. This is because with regards to the poem "A Thought on the Inestimable Blessing of Reason" and "Deliverance From Another Sore Fit", the speakers view was that the speaker considered their own self esteem as insignificant because for them it expresses a great deal of pride and expresses greater doubt with regards to their abilities.

Direct answer:

In both poems, the speakers express humility before a larger and greater force.
