For me the poet wants to be in a place that is near the wind and the sea and in which he can access to ancient truths and beauties. His desire is to live in the eternally changing powers with the ancient God of the seas and rivers. So, this God is always changing forms and that makes the discovery of the truth more difficult. Another God that the author invokes is Triton which is another sea God and use his powers to calm waters.
As you read the passage, which of these answers makes sense when it comes to Elmer? Looking through it, I see that Elmer was a child at the time of the story and was on an adventure. So, to say he was lazy does not make sense. Since he was a child looking for a dragon, it is unlikely that bravery was a part of this scenario. That leaves foolish or lost. He as stood there for awhile watching the lion, so I would say that foolish is the best answer.
