DIRECTIONS: Read the poem below and answer the questions that follow. 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.
