Adjectives are words that modify, describe or gives further information about nouns and pronouns. While a noun is a word that names a thing, a person, an animal, a place, an idea, a feeling, and others, a pronoun is a word that can replace a noun, like he which can replace the noun Marcus, for example.

The eight adjectives in the passage are the following:

1. Drifting: It describes the noun “fog.”

2. Narrow and 3. River: They both describe the noun “valleys”

4. Thick: It describes the noun “forest”

5. Chill: It describes “mist”.

6. Quiet and 7. Little: They both describe the noun “farms”

8. Picturesque: It describes the noun “countryside”
