I know it's in the poem "Richard Cory" by Edwin Arlington Robinson. I was wondering myself what it meant and hoped this question would already have been answered but I guess it hasn't; so here's my answer: He glittered (meaning brilliant or showy; superficial attractiveness) when he walked because he wanted to present to his fellow citizens the image that he was who they thought he was, but he wasn't. Apparently, he was rich of course like everyone thought, and he did walk around appearing to be the happiest man in the world, but he had some issues going on. The guy shot himself for Christ's sake!
