Explanation:
This stanza has been taken from the poem 'The Silver House' by John Lea.
This is a beautiful depiction of the moon and the man who lives on the moon.
Here, the moon refers to the silver house which is present in the lovely sky. Since every fortnight is 15 days long, the poet states that it takes 2 weeks to build the house (so that it is a Full moon day) and another 2 weeks to pull it down (so that it becomes a no moon day).
