The author's purpose for including the details of Daedalus' crying in paragraph 2 is to show his anxiety for his son (Icarus) who will be using his new invention (the wings made of wax). He wasn't completely sure whether his son would be able to follow his order and make it alive.

Explanation:

"Daedalus" is a character in the Greek mythology. He is a skillful craftsman who is full of wisdom and knowledge. As seen on paragraph 1, Daedalus thought of a way in order for him and his son to escape the "Labyrinth" which was actually intended for King Minos of Crete.

In the end, his son died because he wasn't able to completely follow his father's instruction. This is the reason why Daedalus got teary-eyed before his son departed, for he already could perceive what will happen ahead.
