One object in this poem is compared to "the folds of a bright girdle furl'd" in a section that describes a "melancholy, long, withdrawing roar." In discussing the central location of this poem, the author notes that "the light gleams and is gone" and that "you hear the grating roar/ of pebbles which the waves draw back." Its final section urges, "Ah, love, let us be true/ to one another!" long after noting that Sophocles felt similarly on the Aegean about "the turbid ebb and flow of human misery." For 10 points, name this work set on a "darkling plain" on which "ignorant armies clash by night," a poem by Matthew Arnold.
