What best conveys loneliness in this excerpt is the phrase "the correspondent thought that he was the one man afloat on all the oceans."

We are told in the text that the correspondent was responsible for a leak in what is probably the keel of the boat, enabling water to pour in ("a crest came with a roar and a swash into the boat"). However, he seems to be the only one really bothered by it, as the other characters don't let it trouble their sleep. The correspondent remains the only character awake on the boat and since they are in the middle of the ocean, it feels particularly lonely, as though he were alone at sea: "one man afloat on all the oceans".

According to the dictionary, squawks do not mean the same thing as squeaks. does this sentence need any revision?
Svetlanka [38]
It might be clearer to say: According to the dictionary, a squawk is not the same thing as a squeak. there's no need for them to be plural in your sentence and it's likely that, in the dictionary, they're listed as "squeak" and "squawk" singularly. when describing dictionary definitions it's best to use the form of the word that the dictionary uses for clarity.

Evening By Victoria Mary Sackville-West When little lights in little ports come out, Quivering down through water with the stars
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

None of them

Explanation:

A The text describes not a part of a ship but the cosmological harmony of a seaport.

B The stars and little lights; clearly this is not a daytime scene.

C The poetic beauty of the text lies in the powerful energy the writer receives from the darkness that caresses the seaport and its observer.

D No it doesn´t, but it does imply the consolation and possible harmony with one´s existence that awaits us when growing old:

¨Old age... Weathered through storms, and gracious in retreat.¨
