Answer:
The correct answer is Distant.
The word that best describes the speaker’s relation to “some men” is Distant.
The poem begins with “Some men there are who found in nature all their inspiration, hers the sympathy, Which spurs them on to any great endeavour, to them the fields and goods are closest friends, And they hold great communion with the hills…” The word that best describes the speaker’s relation to “some men” is Distant. The way she initiates the poem serves to set up the contrast to the speaker’s views.
