Analysis In Stefan Collini’s opinion‚ "Dover Beach" is a difficult poem to analyze‚ and some of its passages and metaphors have become so well known that they are hard to see with "fresh eyes".[3] Arnold begins with a naturalistic and detailed nightscape of the beach at Dover in which auditory imagery plays a significant role ("Listen! you hear the grating roar").[4] The beach‚ however‚ is bare‚ with only a hint of humanity in a light that "gleams and is gone".[5] Reflecting the traditional notion
