Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

“The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls”

The tide rises, the tide falls,
The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;
Along the sea-sands damp and brown
The traveler hastens toward the town,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.
Darkness settles on roofs and walls,
But the sea, the sea in darkness calls;
The little waves, with their soft, white hands
Efface the footprints in the sands,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.
The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls
Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls;
The day returns, but nevermore
Returns the traveler to the shore.
And the tide rises, the tide falls.


The use of repetition, rhyme, and the uniform number, length, and meter of the lines works to bolster the themes of

each day starting just like the last and the importance of the tide in the day.

the happiness of the ocean and the animals that lived in the town near the ocean.

the never ending roll of time as seen in the never ending movement of the waves.

time stopping because of the disappearance of the harried traveler in the dark.

Question 5 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)

If we look at the ancient Sumerian societies, we can determine exactly the social and physical world that led to the necessary production of laws. The first cities in the ancient Sumerian world, including Ur, were based on the recent invention of cultivated grains. People stopped having to forage and hunt. It became necessary to maintain one residence to watch and care for the harvest. With each harvest, came excess production. This attribute of the physical world created the need for commerce and built the wealth necessary for large scale urban development. The second wave of large cities in the ancient Sumerian world, including Sumer, saw the second phase of organic development of laws. These cities became so large that social laws, also known as customs, were needed to allow people to live together en masse.

The main idea of this passage is that

people stopped having to go out and hunt.

Sumerian society developed laws over time.

Sumerian society was very complex.

the physical world created large cities.
