after wandering aimlessly in search for 'solace' the poems speaker finds the lake which symbolizes death. The imagery of the 'poisonous wave' and 'fitting grave' emphasizes the comparison between the lake and death. The speaker is not frightened but is in fact delighted at the sight of the dark 'grave'. Death is the only solace for those who are without hope.
