Assuming your options are <em>infinitives, repetition, adjectives, and punctuation, </em>the correct answer is infinitives.

There are repetitions (the word fog is constantly being repeated), there are a lot of adjectives, and some punctuation marks - all of which contribute to the dreariness of this excerpt.
