The sentence should instead be this: Which moves more swiftly through the water, a shark or a crocodile. Although this is starting to slip from common usage.
<span> I believe that the excerpt which best reflect Gregor's isolated condition after his transformation is the first one:
He got into the habit of closely watching it for one or two hours before
it was opened and then, lying in the darkness of his room where he
could not be seen from the living room, he could watch the family in the
light of the dinner table and listen to their conversation—with
everyone's permission, in a way, and thus quite differently from before.
It shows how his family were all together, his parents and his sister, enjoying their time watching TV and talking, while he was in the other room all alone, with no one to talk to. He is lonely and completely isolated after his transformation, although he used to be the same thing even before he became a bug.

The main idea of the poem is that one should not to give up pursuing a woman if at first she doesn't seem interested, because when she has finally been won over, her love will last forever. In other words, be patient, because a woman who is not easily wooed will provide the longest form of love.
The poet uses the "metaphor" of burning an oak. A metaphor is a comparison between two seemingly unlike things (in this case a woman/her love and an oak tree) without using the words "like" or "as" (which would make the comparison a simile).
The poet uses the metaphor of a wound to represent how deep love can go ("Deep is the wound, that dints the parts entire With chaste affects, that naught but death can sever").
