Question
no more- no more- no more-
(such language holds the solemn sea
to the sands upon the shore)
shall bloom the thunder - blasted tree
or the stricken eagle soar!
and all my days are trances,
and all my nightly dreams
are where thy grey eye glances,
and where thy footstep gleams-
in what ethereal dances,
by what eternal streams.
what theme of the poem does the third stanza reveal?
there are losses from which people do not fully recover.
after death, people can no longer witness nature.
when loved ones die, people must rely on memories.
the natural world is strong and resilient.
The third stanza talks about the speaker's days being trances and nightly dreams being about someone (indicated by "thy"). This implies that when a loved one is no longer present (perhaps dead), the speaker relies on memories (as seen in the dreams and trances centered around the loved one).
