ENGLISH 2 HELP
Which of the following elements does NOT contribute to the dreary mood of this short passage from the novel Bleak House by Charles wingspanens?

Answer 1

“Fog on the Essex marshes, fog on the Kentish heights. Fog creeping into the cabooses of collier-brigs; fog lying out on the yards, and hovering in the rigging of great ships; fog drooping on the gunwales of barges and small boats. Fog in the eyes and throats of ancient Greenwich pensioners, wheezing by the firesides of their wards; fog in the stem and bowl of the afternoon pipe of the wrathful skipper; fog cruelly pinching the toes and fingers of his shivering little ’prentice boy on deck.”
