a farmer was ploughing his field the whole pageantry of the year was awake tingling near the edge of the sea concerned with itself
This shows how that many people are to busy worried about their selves and their own life to care about what is happening around them.Like with how the farmer is ploughing doing something he does everyday not noticing Icurus drowning right next to him.
For years I enjoyed my duties as minstrel and that lord’s favor, but now the freehold and land titles he bestowed upon me once he has vested in Heorrenda, master of verse-craft. That passed over, this can too.
This shows that many emotions and feelings can pass over weather it's good or bad.Like early in the text where he described people were sad over different things but then in the end it passed over.Then in the end it shows he had a job he loved being a poet but then his lord left.
We have heard tell of Mathilde’s laments, the grief that afflicted Geat’s wife. Her love was her bane, it banished sleep. That passed over, this can too.

Remember your name. Do not lose hope — what you seek will be found. Trust ghosts. Trust those that you have helped to help you in their turn.
I think this is telling the reader to not lose hope because some things aren't going your way and to also trust people more even if they seem untrustworthy like a ghost.Becuase then later it says that the same people you helped they will end up returning favors to you or be kind to you because you were nice to them.And to also do the same for them to be fair.
Ride the wise eagle (you shall not fall). Ride the silver fish (you will not drown). Ride the grey wolf (hold tightly to his fur).
I think this entire poem is telling the person reading to trust people more or to just be a good person.Like how the author said not to be jealous of your sister just because she has diamonds and roses or like when the authour said that their's an old women at an old tree who will help you if your polite.And like how near the end the author tells the person reading what to ride and then tells them that they will be safe on the diffrent animals.
