| "Long time he lay" | "L" sound is gentle and lulling. "Long"- no sense of time as the boy is so young and carefree. |
| "Securely bound" | He is protected by his parents, however this is limiting his perceptions of the world as he can't stray far. |
| "Silent, changing sound was still." | Sibilance creates a whispering, soft sound. Suggests harmony and peace in the child's life. Still= no movement or disturbance. |
| "Massed islands" | The boy sees them as one, suggesting unity. He finds it comforting as they are there to protect him, acting as a barrier to the dangers of the unfamiliar world. |
| "And though all ran together in his view, he knew that unseen straights between them lay." | Again suggesting unity and harmony however the child acknowledges that there is something more out there unknown. He has a childlike curiosity about what the outside world is like. |
| "New shores" | Sinister, suggests something unknown and unfamiliar. The boy still thinks the outside is like his world, all shores and islands. Shows his innocent ignorance. |
| "A ship so slow" | The ship is a symbol of the sinister adult world, approaching the boy's childhood. However it doesn't directly impact him as he is watching from a distance. Dissonance slows down the pace of the line and creates a change in mood. |
| "Black hill's gloom" | Seems threatening and menacing. Black has connotations of dark and evil. |
| "Tiny grey rocks slept" | The world is at peace again, even the rocks are tranquil and relaxed. |
| "And from the house his mother called his name." | Links back to the first stanza's reference to his father. The poem is enclosed by mother and father, protecting the boy. Gives a sense of belonging. |
