Explanation:

The poet is old. He enjoys quiet. He spends his time in reading books, drawing pictures and taking physical exercise in a small plot of grassy land. The strength of his body is gone. His life is as dark and lonely as mid-night and as decaying as an old house where only a mouse runs about.

He has had now no attraction for anything. He has come to his life’s end. He enjoys the quiet of old age, with his imagination dulled, his mind not working briskly, and his preoccupation with flesh. This old man’s rest gives him truth, but it provides no means to work that truth into poetry.
