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.

The correct answer is; Tarantism.

Further Explanation:

In both the 15th, 16th, and 17th century people who had mental and psychological illness would do bizarre things in the public. They would start dancing when there was no music, this was called "Tarantism."

In those days, they did not have modern doctors and psychologists that we have now. The people in the towns, where people suffered from this ailment, thought they had been bitten by a tarantula, black widow, or wolf spider.

This was also called "dancing mania" since the people who suffered from this would dance manically in the town square.  This was common in Italy.
