Here, the speaker notes that his mariners are old; however, he says, "old age hath yet his honour and toil." By this he means that their work need not be done.
It is still possible for them to regain their honor through toil. "Some work of noble note, may yet be done," he says, before they die. Therefore, the main theme of this excerpt is that the old can still gain honor by taking up challenges (or toil) again.</span>
The author uses very vague and mysterious phrases such as "as the website had promised" and " unlock the door with the key I had been sent.". Because he doesn't reveal who or what sent him/ brought him to that home, we question why he is there and what is going to happen next (Good or Bad). This can be seen in movies too. Typically writers will leave out key information to make us think and wonder. Hope that helped! :))
