Transitions to First Person Voice in the Book of Mormon

Grant Hardy points out 15 distinct points in the Book of Mormon where Mormon transitions from third person voice to third person (quoting someone else directly). In each case, the distinction is very clearly demarcated and the primary source is specifically referenced, usually by saying "and these are the words which he spake" or something similar.

I find this interesting since we get a pretty long list of voices in the text to keep track of.

Here is a list of these transition points and which person is being quoted:

• Zeniff in Mosiah 9:1
• King Mosiah-2 in Mosiah 29:5
• Moroni-1 in Alma 54:5 and Alma 60:1
• Ammoron in Alma 54:16
• Helaman-2 in Alma 56:2
• Pahoran in Alma 61:2
• Giddiannhi in 3 Nephi 3:2
• King Benjamin in Mosiah 2:9
• Alma 2 in Alma 5:2, Alma 7:1, Alma 9:8, Alma 36:1, Alma 38:1, Alma 39:1
