How did flowers hinder Horace in his work?

Dear Student,

Flowers hindered Horace in his work because Horace had hay fever, a disorder affecting the nose and throat, caused by allergy to pollen or dust. Due to this problem, whenever he came close to flowers, he began to sneeze and could be caught. He had to cover his face.
