Select the correct text in the passage.
Which two phrases feature a haunting tone in this excerpt from Sara Teasdale’s “Places”?
Places I love come back to me like music –
Mid-ocean, midnight, the waves buzz drowsily:
In the ship’s deep churning the eerle phosphorescence
Is like the souls of people who were drowned at sea
And I can hear a man’s voice, speaking, hushed, insistent,
At midnight in mid-ocean, hour on hour to me.
