to an admiring bog!

Explanation: In "I'm Nobody! Who are you?", by Emily Dickinson, the use of the phrase "admiring Bog", reveals the poet thinks that being well known is unpleasant because everyone pays attention to what you do. The poet claims she is nobody and that makes her excited. She doesn't need the approval of others. She enjoys living as "nobody" and finds dreadful to be considered as somebody to pay attention to.

a. Unpleasant because everyone pays attention to what you do

Explanation:

In this poem, Dickinson rejoices herself in being “nobody.” She shows her aversion to the public eye, attention, and fame while expressing how much she treasures keeping a private identity above all. The “admiring bog” is said to represent society who likes paying attention to other people's lives. Besides, the fact that the author compares society to a bog reinforces the idea that she finds attention to be unpleasant.
