Tile 1. TRANQUIL DILIGENCE
"And busily all the night · Had been heaping field and highway · With a silence deep and white"...

The mood that is evoked by this excerpt is exquisite beauty because the writer, James Russel Lowell depicts images of nature with descriptions that produce a sense of awe in the beauty of nature.


Tile 3. POWERFUL TURBULENCE
"Enwrapp'd in tempest and a night of storms · Astonish'd ocean feels the wild uproar"... The thoughts of "storms" and "wild uproar" in themselves are pictures of powerful turbulence. As a matter of fact, the word, "Turbulence" is defined as the violent movement of air or water, a phenomenon which is typical of a storm. 


Tile 4. LAVISH AFFLUENCE
"From splendid domes of first degree · Where ladies meet to sip their tea"... It is quite apparent that lavish affluence is evoked by this excerpt. The first line, "From splendid domes of first degree" evokes a sense of grandeur in the reader, while the second line, "Where ladies meet to sip their tea" creates an image of a group of women with high standing and wealth, thus evoking a sense of affluence.
