Answer 2

The poet sees something in nature that cannot be quantified.

Step-by-step explanation:

Emerson feels the need to discuss the "poetic sense" that exists in contemplating nature. he ends up concluding that "poetic sense" means seeing nature as something unreachable and without the possibility of conceptualization.
