Read the passage. Darkness settles on roofs and walls, But the sea, the sea in the darkness calls: The little waves, with their soft, white hands, Efface the footprints in the sands, And the tide rises, the tide falls. What mood does this stanza from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s “The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls” evoke in the reader?

The mood is peaceful and serene yet with a tinge of loneliness and darkness.
