Answer 1

Answer:

Stanza 2

It clutched my throat, I coughed;

Nothing was in my head

Except two heavy eyes

Like balls of burning lead.

The fog had its effect on me. I felt like being choked. I coughed, my head seemed empty, yet I could feel my eyes, very heavy and hot now. I could feel the heat of my eyes.

Meanings

It clutched my throat – The poet could not speak.

Nothing was in my head – I could not think, remember.

Eyes like balls of burning lead – The poet could see, that’s all.
