To express the grim mood of the poem, which line is the most suitable replacement for the second line of this stanza?

The tower held the city in shadow
it was a very tall tower;
I ached to climb those cold, grey walls
and look upon the little people.
We witnessed it with joy.
tall as a cherry tree
like a somber peak capped by the clouds.
It stood there fair with a winding stair,
