The phrases creating a tone of foreboding are:
- "strange blight;"
- "evil spell;"
- "mysterious maladies;"
- "shadow of death."
<em>Foreboding</em> means predicting or announcing that something bad is about to happen. Taking the answers one by one, you can see how they relate to the same ominous idea:
- a "strange blight" and "evil maladies" refer to a destructive condition which no-body can explain;
- an "evil spell" means that it is interpreted as a magical curse;
- the "shadow of death" is a metaphor meaning that death is coming to the crops or cattle (depending on the original text excerpt).

An annular solar eclipse happens when the Moon covers the Sun's inside, leaving the Sun's unmistakable external edges to shape a "ring of flame" or annulus around the Moon. The ring of flame denotes the most extreme phase of an annular sun oriented shroud. Sunlight based shrouds happen when the Moon throws a shadow on Earth.</span>
