“Thou knowest the sorrows that I felt;

My plaints and groans were heard of Thee,
And how in sweat I seemed to melt
Thou help'st and Thou regardest me.”

What does the word regardest suggest about the speaker’s attitude toward God?

I'm pretty sure its D.

The speaker realizes that God watches from a great distance.

Throughout the text, the speaker makes a strong emphasis on how God has followed his steps and witnessed in several forms of his suffering. In the end, the speaker closes the idea stating that God has helped him and that he cares about him, this also shows a possitive attitude towards God.

"Regardest" is the archaic word for the verb "regard" used in the singular for the second person
