Read the following passage from the pickwick papers by charles dickens:
"on either side, the banks of the medway, covered with
corn-fields and pastures, with here and there a windmill, or
a distant church, stretched away as far as the eye could
see, presenting a rich and varied landscape, rendered more
beautiful by the changing shadows which passed swiftly
across it as the thin and half-formed clouds skimmed
away in the light of the morning sun. the river, reflecting
the clear blue of the sky, glistened and sparkled as it
flowed noiselessly on; and the oars of the fishermen
dipped into the water with a clear and liquid sound."
which phrase from the passage above most contributes to its peaceful
mood?
