Thou, silent form, dost tease us out of thought

As doth eternity: Cold Pastoral!

When old age shall this generation waste,

Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe

Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,

Beauty is truth, truth beauty,"-that is all

Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.

    The answer is line 3 and 4

    Explanation:

    Thou in archaic English is the second-person pronoun in the singular form, while ye is the archaic plural form of you used. When the author says: "When old age shall this generation waste, Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe" this is addressing the reader. In this case, thou means you, in other words, "you shall remain".
