Stomata are shut at night to conserve water. When there is no light, plants cannot fix carbon dioxide. Stomata are usually open to allow entrance of carbon dioxide. A side effect is that water is lost from the leaves.

There is an exception to this, however. CAM plants such as cacti and succulents open the stomata at night, store carbon dioxide as acids, and close them during the day to prevent dessication from harsh desert conditions.

What does eyes the shady night has shut mean?

The phrase "eyes the shady night has shut" suggests a sense of rest or sleep, indicating that the night has enveloped the world in darkness, closing off the light and activity associated with the day. It evokes imagery of tranquility and perhaps a protective silence, as the night offers a respite from the chaos of daily life. This line can also imply a metaphorical closing of the eyes to reality, inviting reflection or introspection during the night.
