For your first question, your answer should be, "amazed".

For your second question, your answer should be, "It probably sank."

This vivid experience by Henry David Thoreau is an example of vivid personal and subjective perception. It does not put itself in the center of the universe, but from the perspective of perception describes its experience that represents the sense of admiration. His tone is best described with "amazed".
