"Beside the long palm's shadow"
Not IN the shadow, but BESIDE!
Let's think about this.
Now, are we talking trunk or treetop shadow?
Something has to tell us which side and how far in or out.
Or...
"Beside the long palm's shadow" has a deeper meaning and is not beside a shadow.

Beside the long palm's shadow can also mean "on the side of the long palm's shadow". It doesn't have to be near it just on the side facing it.

“Beside” AND “close at hand” are BOTH synonyms for the word “nearby”, which is interesting and likely on purpose given Byron’s love for word play.
