Hey! You probably came from the worksheet that asks you to complete the sentence in a way that shows you understand the italicized word. The word that was italicized in this sentence was <em>opulent</em> so I'll tell you what it means to help you out! Opulent's definition is 'rich, luxurious and lavish'. That kind of thing. So you can finish the sentence by describing the port's expensive items and how it was clearly for rich people by the way it was decorated with jewels, gold, etc. I hope this helped you in some way or another :)
Answer:
The speaker commands the instruments to play loudly. He imagines the sound bursting through a "solemn church", scattering the congregation, into the school where the scholar is studying. He imagines the sound disturbing a bride and groom. He commands the instruments to play so loudly that it changes that they disrupt everyone's life.
The author intended to invoke the enviroment of war without speaking about soldiers. He uses onomatopeia and enphasis in certain words so that the speaker, whilst reading the poem, could also imagine the drums playing.
That which is "solemn", "quiet", and "peaceful" is meant to be disturbed, to be changed by the loud instruments playing.
