Which of these phrases from Elizabeth Bishop's poem "The Fish" most shows her respect for the fish?

Battered and venerable

I stared and stared

and victory filled up

the little rented boat,

from the pool of bilge

where oil had spread a rainbow

around the rusted engine

to the bailer rusted orange,

the sun-cracked thwarts,

the oarlocks on their strings,

the gunnels-until everything

was rainbow, rainbow, rainbow!
