Whom is nurse talking about? i saw the wound, i saw it with mine eyes, god save the mark! here on his manly breast: a piteous corse, a bloody piteous corse; pale, pale as ashes, all bedaub'd in blood, all in gore blood; i swounded at the sight.

Tybalt

Explanation:

In these lines, Nurse is talking about Tybalt, who has been killed by Romeo. However, she does not explain who she is referring to, and initially Juliet believes she is talking about Romeo, which upsets her deeply. Nurse eventually explains the situation, which is that Tybalt is dead and Romeo has been banished for killing him.

first of all the mood needs to be defined: it is obviously a mood of deceitful relief and serenity. why? because the cape horn is one of the most violent maritime regions of earth and although it has been left behind, it is a personification of ahab’s delirium and the fact that the end of the passage speaks about it about being “hidden” but “raving” immediately conveys the feeling the calm is not permanent but fleeting.

furthermore, the oxymoron “mild stun'sails” is the first instance of such feeling as the adjective “mild” is associated with “stunned” underscoring the fleeting nature of this “tranquil” moment. and the contrasts keep piling up, with the opposition between “dark den” and “blessed light and air” to end with the final conclusion that leaves the reader with the uneasy knowledge that this is just a reprieve.
