WILL GIVE BRAINLEST!

Read the excerpt.

But now they drift on the still water,
Mysterious, beautiful;
Among what rushes will they build,
By what lake’s edge or pool
Delight men’s eyes when I awake some day
To find they have flown away?

In the excerpt he's talking about how the swans are beautiful on the water. He reflects on what they do at the lake's edge. But not at his lake any more...he thinks about what they will do at another lake or pond edge. He's showing how things come and go, but he is not melancholy for the swans. He's just acknowledging that they move on.
