In the journey ‘beyond and beyond, forest and river, forest, swamp and river, the mountains of Arakkkabao—leagues and leagues’ they encounter strange and wonderful animals, among them the spirit of evil, the menacing Immanala—‘she who preys across the shadows’, and survive terrifying perils, including the loss of the Wonderstone, wheedled from Nod by a seductive Water Maiden.

AO Walter De La Mare Poems AmblesideOnline.org

11 - A Widow's Weeds A poor old Widow in her weeds Sowed her garden with wild- flower seeds; Not too shallow, and not too deep, And down came April -- drip - - drip -- drip.
. . .
25 - Wanderers Wide are the meadows of night,    And daisies are shining there, Tossing their lovely dews,    Lustrous and fair; And through these sweet fields go,    Wanderers amid the stars-- Venus, Mercury, Uranus, Neptune,    Saturn, Jupiter, Mars.
. . .
But the music is lost and the words are gone Of the song I sang as I sat alone, Ages and ages have fallen on me-- On the wood and the pool and the elder tree.
. . .
And when all the guests were gone, and    All was still as still can be, In from the dark ivy hopped a    Wee small bird: and that was Me. 08 - The Cupboard I know a little cupboard,      With a teeny tiny key, And there's a jar of Lollypops           For me, me, me.
. . .
Of all the trees in England,    From sea to sea again, The Willow loveliest stoops her boughs    Beneath the driving rain.
. . .
As I sat musing, 'twas not one but ten-- Rank on rank of ghostly soldiers marching o'er the fen, Marching in the misty air they showed in dreams to me, And behind me was the shouting and the shattering       of the sea.

The Literary Gothic | Walter De La Mare

Although a fairly gifted prose stylist, his style is, to put it mildly, elliptical at times, and he relies rather heavily on language, much of it colloquial, that will not be familiar to most readers today, especially American readers.
. . .
This demand placed upon the reader makes him unlikely to make any best-seller lists anytime soon, which is a shame.
. . .
His works are often thematically indirect; he directly says very little (fittingly enough for an early Modern writer); there is much ambiguity and (deliberate) vagueness, leaving much of the "theme" of his works up to us to determine.

But then again, I wonder, perhaps ‘The Listeners’ whom we might  suppose to have been the Traveller’s Betrothed and her family had a story with a different ending….
. . .
Of course a man might like to fancy himself as being so esteemed that  a woman might patiently wait for him even as the years and decades rolled by on the strength of the perhaps lightly given promise of his return with all the expected consequent rejoicing etc, and if he failed to keep his word that she   and would wither and pine away in his absence like old Miss Havisham in Dickens’ “Great Expectations’.
. . .
We get the feelng that the fate which befell the listeners was a result of his neglection of them.
