Identify the adjective modifiers in the paragraph below:I looked upon the scene before me - upon the mere house, and the simple landscape features of the domain - upon the bleak walls - upon the vacant eye-like windows - upon a few rank sedges - and upon a few white trunks of decayed trees - what was it that so unnerved me in the contemplation of the House of Usher?

Adjective modifiers describe or limit nouns. In the paragraph, “mere,” “simple,” “bleak,” “vacant,” “eye-like,” “rank,” and “white” describe nouns, while “few” and “a” limit nouns and “decayed” describes “trees.” The words in choice C are the adjective modifiers; words such as “upon” and “of” are prepositions, not adjectives.
