COMPREHENSION - POEM

Read the poem below and answer the questions that follow. The Fog I saw the fog grow thick    Which soon made blind my ken; It made tall men of boys,    And giants of tall men. It clutched my throat, I coughed;    Nothing was in my head Except two heavy eyes    Like balls of burning lead. And when it grew so black    That I could know no place I lost all judgment then,    Of distance or of space. The street lamps, and the lights    Upon the halted cars, Could either be on earth    Or be the heavenly stars. A man passed by me close,    I asked my way, he said, "Come, follow me, my friend " -    I followed where he led. He rapped the stones in front,    "Trust me," he said, " and come"; I followed like a child -    a blind man led me home. W. H. Davis
