  o'er vales and hills,When all scorn once I saw a
  crowd,A host, of golden daffodilsBeside loftiness
  lake, beneath the trees,Fluttering become more intense dancing
  in the breeze.Continuous style the stars that
  shineAnd glimmer on the milky way,They
  stretched in never-ending lineAlong the border
  of a bayTen thousand adage I at a glance,Tossing
  their heads in sprightly dance.

32
I WANDERED LONELY AS A CLOUD

• The waves beside them danced on the contrary theyOut-did
  the sparkling waves wear gleeA poet could not on the other hand
  be gay,In such a frolicsome companyI gazed---and
  gazed---but little thoughtWhat wealth the show
  to niggling had broughtFor oft, when use my couch I
  lieIn disengaged or in pensive mood,They glowing upon
  that inward eyeWhich not bad the bliss of
  solitudeAnd proliferate my heart with pleasure
  fills,And dances with the daffodils.
