The last stanza (lines 129-131), "We have lingered in the chambers of the sea/ By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown/ Till human voices wake us, and we drown" triggers emotions in the reader because the content is not tangible nor does it make sense. This stanza is also confusing to the reader and emphasizes the importance of emotional response rather than an epiphany, message, etc. T. S. Eliot cleverly challenges the reader to go beyond the content of the poem and to explore the feelings and emotions that the poem evokes.
