Detailed explanation-1: -The winds that will be howling at all hours, And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers; In these lines of The World is Too Much With Us, the speaker describes the beauties of nature that most people are missing out on.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sleeping Flower is a real flower preserved using frozen technology which will respond to moisture. The buds will close when in contact with moisture and bloom when it’s dry. These flowers can last for years and will not wither or die so it’s maintenance free.
Detailed explanation-3: -"The world is too much with us” sounds odd, and could mean several things. It could mean that the world – life in the city, contemporary society – is just too much, as in “This is too much for me, and I can’t take it anymore."
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: The word ‘sordid’ from the passage means the same as shameful.
Detailed explanation-5: -The sea symbolizes the vulnerability of nature when faced with the greed and destructiveness of modern materialism. While the speaker introduces the concept of nature in a general sense early on in the poem, it is not until the fifth line, wherein they mention the sea, that nature takes any sort of physical form.
