In my opinion, those lines are: "<span>Too weak, for all her heart's endeavour, To set its struggling passion free From pride, and vainer ties dissever." At this moment, Porphyria confesses her love for the speaker. But he is on the verge of doubting it because he thinks that she is too weak to give herself entirely to him, and because she is obviously unwilling to cut those "vainer ties". He doesn't really explain what these ties are and why they are vain. Maybe he has low self-confidence and therefore thinks that he is not worthy of her. Anyway, the following lines ("But passion...") function as a counterpoint because she actually gave up a jolly party and came in the stormy night to the cottage just to be with him - which probably means that she really cares about him. But it doesn't neutralize his initial doubt.</span>

This passage is from chapter 6 of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby", where Nick believes Jay Gatsby's dream of getting Daisy back after all the years is ending.
Explanation:
In Chapter 6 of "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Nick Carraway narrates how Jay Gatsby had wanted to get back with his former lover Daisy. But Daisy had already married Tom Buchanan, who Jay despises.
Tom and Daisy had come to Gatsby's house to party and Tom had decided to follow Daisy just to keep an eye on Gatsby. After the party got over and everyone has left, Gatsby exclaimed to Nick that Daisy is different, that "<em>she doesn't understand</em>". When asked further, Nick realizes that Jay wanted Daisy to leave her husband and come to him. He wanted her to "<em>obliterate the four years</em>" she's married to Tom, and "<em>go back to Louisville and be married from her house—just as if it were five years ago</em>". For Gatsby's part, it sounded a bit greedy, expecting her to act how he wanted things to be.
Madly in love with her, he wanted to get back with her on his terms, not thinking of what the others will feel. This, Nick feels, is the blatant end of Gatsby's dream which was to get Daisy back. This is his version of truth, Daisy telling Tom "<em>I never loved you</em>" and go to Jay, while the truth was that it was just a dream, wishful thinking. Unable to see past his own fantasies and wants, he believes and want/ expect Daisy to return to him.
