THE FOG


                                                     SUMMARY



                    The poet says that the fog which is generally seen during the winter season is


                    coming towards the city and the harbour just like a cat. This means that it is

                    approaching the city in a very silent manner so that no one can notice its arrival.


                    He has compared its arrival to that of a cat because a cat always enters a place


                    silently. Next he says that the fog has covered the whole of the city and harbour


                    and it appears as if it is sitting by folding its legs and looking around just the

                    way a cat does when it sits on the haunches and looks around. At the end, he


                    describes the departure of the fog which very silently and unpredictably, again,


                    similar to the departure of the cat, vanishes.
