The correct option is <u><em>"Society and Solitude has a contemplative tone, while Nature has a more lyrical and whimsical tone."</em></u>
Further Explanation:
Chapter 1 of "Nature" written by Ralph Waldo Emerson reflects on his perception about Nature and how we perceive the objects present around us. This chapter is about Ralph's experience of solitude when he is around Nature. He adds that his way of looking at nature is very different from the way society does. As he is a poet he has the potential to look into nature in a way which other people cannot. The objects in the night are stars, trees, landscape and nature. The poet while looking at the stars contemplates about his life and tries to rediscover the eternal self. Talking about the stars, the poet is of the idea that the presence of starts has made the people take the stars for granted. The accessibility of the stars has made the people move away from the beauty of nature. He also adds that even they are accessible to the eyes, still they are so distanced that they remain inaccessible too. The beauty of nature is only accessible to people who understand its importance. The stars, the landscape, and nature build a bond between the people and the universe. It links everything present in the world. He concludes that although everything is present around us, it is the privilege of only the people who have time to look and feel them.
