Read this excerpt from "The Lady of Shalott" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Which line describes how the world of the Lady of Shalott differs from that of Camelot?

Willow whiten, aspens quiver;

1[Little breezes dusk and shiver

Through the wave that runs forever]

By the island in the river

Flowing down to Camelot.

2[Four gray walls, and four gray towers,

Overlook a space of flowers,

And silent isle imbowers

The Lady of Shalott.] 3[ By the margin, willow veil'd,

Slide the heavy barges trail'd

By slow horses]; and unhail'd

The shallop flitteth silken-sail'd

Skimming down to Camelot:

4[But who hath seen her wave her hand?

Or at the casement seen her stand?]

Or is she known in all the land,

The Lady of Shalott?
