Final answer:
The supplied passages use strong imagery and descriptions akin to silhouettes but do not contain information about 'two Things' referenced in the question. Therefore, it's not possible to ascertain an answer without additional context.
Step-by-step explanation:
The author uses vivid imagery to describe the appearance of various items and scenes. In the excerpt provided, the description leans towards creating an image with a silhouette. This is evident from the example of the horsemen's hat, which is described simply by a few black contour lines against a white page; the author essentially is picturing a silhouette. While the question relates to two Things, the given passages do not contain information directly correlating to options A, B, C, or D, nor do they mention 'two Things'. Hence, without additional context or a specific reference within a text, it's not possible to determine which item the author uses to describe the appearance of the two Things. The excerpts do show, however, the use of strong imagery and metaphor to depict various aspects of nature and objects.
