Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: Poems
“The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls”
What words in the third stanza hint at traveler’s fate? How does the image of a lively horse contrast with what probable has happened to the traveler?
The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls; The day returns, but nevermore Returns the traveller to the shore, And the tide rises, the tide falls.
