This excerpt belongs to the poem "Columbus" by Joaquin Miller. In this, the author refers to the experience of Columbus and his men as they sailed from Europe to the Americas. In this poem the excerpt "Should I and all my men fall dead. These very winds forget their way..." show the fear, despair, and lack of hope by Columbus and his men because they were afraid all of them would simply die "Should I and all my men fall dead" and not even god will know it or would help them. In this context, the tone or general atmosphere is better described through the word fearfulness.
