Thoreau mostly uses imagery to illustrate time in the excerpt. The second sentence is saying that he is in the midst of time/living, and he can "detect how shallow it is," meaning that he is aware that life is short and that the end is inevitable. Thoreau also describes time as being fleeting, but ever-present.
I hope this helps!

Individuals should not be allowed to own exotic pets. These animals usually have temperature needs. An example of this would be komodo dragons. They need a rather warm environment in order to survive. If the person lives in a cold climate, the lizard will inevitably end up going into a cage. Going off of that, the majority of these animals are held in cages(especially if large.) Lastly, Some exotic animals could be harmful or dangerous depending on species. If a owner decides to adopt a large cat, it is recommended to declaw them because of their massive claws. This can lead to infections in the cat’s paws and makes it very uncomfortable for the animal.
