Answer: in the first passage the author means lonely as the regular definition which is being alone. He talks about the flowers and things because he is having alone time admiring them. He also talks about how he usually go on this walk to admire plants. Also, he talks about how he is so alone that nature is pretty much his friend.
The second passage refers to being lonely as in the greatness in enjoying your imagination when your friends are not around. For example, boredom can be used as the way this passage describes being lonely. In the first stanza, the poet says that he was wandering lonely as a Cloud that floats on high o'er vales and Hills. The phrase refers to him being roaming around without any purpose. He was all alone like a cloud that floats high in the valley.

If you are referring to this point: Oscar
Wilde uses humor to critique society and show that there is too much concern
about coming from a proper family.
I believe the correct answer is: “To
be born, or at any rate bred, in a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not,
seems to me to display a contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life . .
.”
In his dramatic work “The Importance
of Being Earnest”, Oscar Wild often uses irony and humor to critique the norms
and “moral” of the society in Victorian era. One of the examples for that is
this line:
“To be born, or at any rate bred, in
a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt
for the ordinary decencies of family life . . .”
As it shows the needless concern of
the type of the bag Ernest was found in, but which indicate the wealth of the
family to Lady Bracknell. Ernest states that there is no contempt for the
ordinary decencies of family life when you are born in a hand-bag, no matter if
it was large, black leather hand-bag, with handles to it or not.
