    marked him from the start for a happy life. But change happened‚ He grew bloodthirsty‚ gave no more things to honor the Danes. He suffered in the end for having plagued his people for so long his life lost happiness.” This passage from the poem exists for two main reasons for which I can discover.

    desolate shore before man existed. He hears the sad murmur of the sea in the shell‚ and is pleased to be back in the real world after his daydream. The tone of the poem is very calm and it is slow-paced. The mood is very morose and lonely‚ because the poet writes of a place with no humans or technology.
