Explanation:

Wordsworth's poem ''The World Is Too Much With Us '' deals with our lost relationship with the natural world. The speaker is dissatisfied because people are occupied with material objects instead of appreciating the beauty of nature. In the line "Little we see in nature that is ours'', the speaker uses a judgmental tone to describe people's behavior towards nature. We take nature for granted, and always put our own needs first.
