Answer 2

Answer: Then she turns to those liars, the candles or the moon. This woman is determined to find a way to reflect herself, to show something deeper than what is on the surface. When the woman is turned away, to look at the lying moon and candles, the lake is still there, reflecting her back, faithfully showing the truth.
