Solution

The lines where he says

‘Had I said, “Good fold, mere noise repels—
But give me your sun from yonder skies!”

They had answered, “And afterward, what else?’ show that he had believed in their enthusiasm in the past but he feels sad at what they had done to him in the present, at the way they had humiliated him.
