Answer:
The poet intends to affirm that Count Dartmouth is capable of great deeds and must receive a divine reward ascending to the skies and having his history recognized worldwide.
Explanation:
The speaker of the poem wants Dartmouth to receive a divine reward, which is as special as the good works he has promoted. With this, the speaker shows Dartmouth a man who promoted progress through bold, great and beneficial attitudes, being able to rise to the skies as God did with Elijah.
With this, the speaker feels that Dartmouth is a man guided by God and that is why he has such good attitudes, so God will not allow him to know death and take him for himself.
