Answer:

Tennyson's poem described how sailors were aware that they had landed "in the land of the Lotus Eaters" They go out slowly to find these people.

The local inhabitants, whose distinctive practice is indicated by their name, invited Odysseus scouts to eat of the mysterious plant.

The inhabitants imagine how sweet it would be to lie on beds of flowers while watching the river flow and listening to the echoes in the caves.

The poem suggests that the inhabitants may be deceiving themselves in vanishing to the hypnotic power of the flower.
