Thoreau meant B) No shanty comes close to as poor as mine.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Henry David Thoreau was a famous American poet and philosopher. He is best known for his book Walden. Not only essayist, he was also an advocate of civil liberties.

David Thoreau is a transcendentalist. He doesn’t have any religious beliefs but understands life relationships.  According to Thoreau, life becomes easy if the demands are less. He believes that one’s demand for unwanted things causes stress in life.  

The phrase “this is a dozen times as poor” used by Thoreau meant No shanty comes close to as poor as mine.
