    Directions For Questions

    Read the poem given below and the answer the questions that follow:

    A Narrow Fellow in the Grass

    A narrow Fellow in the grass
    Occasionally rides—
    You may have met him—did you not
    His notice sudden is—
    The Grass divides as with a Comb—
    A spotted shaft is seen—
    And then it closes at your feet
    And opens further on—
    He likes a Boggy Acre—
    A Floor too cool for Corn—
    Yet when a Boy, and Barefoot—
    I more than once at Noon
    Have passed, I thought, a Whip-lash
    Unbraiding in the Sun—
    When, stooping to secure it,
    It wrinkled, and was gone—
    Several of Nature’s People
    I know, and they know me—
    I feel for them a transport
    Of cordiality—
    But never met this Fellow,
    Attended, or alone—
    Without a tighter breathing
    And zero at the bone
