Answer:

The best answer to the question: In the first three stanzas of "A Child Asleep" Elizabeth Barett Browning associates the flower imagery, especially such flowers as mandragora, which was used for sleep draughts, and nosegays, with that of the sleeping child.

Explanation:

"A Child Asleep" is a poem by Elizabeth Barett Browning, in the 19th century, during the Victorian Era, that likens the peaceful process of sleeping with that of death. In the end, what she is describing is the process of seeing a child pass from this life to the next, but in such a peaceful way, as if the child were nothing more than sleeping. This idea that death is as peaceful for a child as sleeping, comes with the use of the imagery of flowers, especially two types of flowers: the nosegay, which is used as a means to stop bad smells, and mandragora, which is a plant used to cause sleep, and when used too much, it can cause also peaceful death.
