Which two words in this excerpt from “Preludes” by T.S. Eliot appeal to a person's sense of hearing?


The winter evening settles down

With smell of steaks in passageways.

Six o’clock.

The burnt-out ends of smoky days.

And now a shower wraps

The grimy scraps

Of withered leaves about your feet

And newspapers from vacant lots;

The showers beat

On broken blinds and chimney-pots,

And at the corner of the street

A lonely cab-horse steams and stamps.

And then the lighting of the lamps.


A.Smell


B.Shower


C.Grimmy
