Zorluk: KolayTone and Mood Analysis

Refer to the passage below:

The weary traveler climbs the final crest,
And looks upon the quiet vale below,
Where gentle waters in their channel flow,
And every bird is settled in its nest.
The golden evening sun begins to fade,
A purple shadow falls across the green,
And in this tranquil, solitary scene,
The cares of busy day are gently laid.
No heavy wind disturbs the peaceful trees,
No sudden cry disrupts the silent air;
A soft and cooling twilight-breathing breeze
Dispels the lingering shadows of despair.
