At the aquarium by max eastman serene the silver fishes glide, stern-lipped, and pale, and wonder-eyed! as through the aged deeps of ocean, they glide with wan and wavy motion. they have no pathway where they go, they flow like water to and fro, they watch with never-winking eyes, they watch with staring, cold surprise, the level people in the air, the people peering, peering there: who wander also to and fro, and know not why or where they go, yet have a wonder in their eyes, sometimes a pale and cold surprise. read the lines from the poem. serene the silver fishes glide, stern-lipped, and pale, and wonder-eyed! which two sentences best explain how the lines contribute to the poem's meaning? the description of the fishes' lips makes them seem upset about being in the aquarium. the fishes' personification makes them seem like they are observers of the world. the idea of fishes gliding creates an earnest and serious tone. the wonder shown by the fishes makes them seem like they are children. the alliteration create a picture of fishes swimming through the water. pick the ones that are right there is more than one answer
