    "I wandered Lonely


    As A Cloud "

    By: William Wordsworth


    I wandered lonely as a cloud
    1 wandered lonely as a cloud 13The waves beside them danced; but they

    2That floats on high o'er vales and hills, 14Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

    3When all at once I saw a crowd, 15A poet could not but be gay,

    4A host, of golden daffodils; 16In such a jocund company:

    5Beside the lake, beneath the trees, 17I gazed—and gazed—but little thought

    6Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. 18What wealth the show to me had brought:

    7Continuous as the stars that shine 19For oft, when on my couch I lie

    8And twinkle on the milky way, 20In vacant or in pensive mood,

    9They stretched in never-ending line 21They flash upon that inward eye

    10Along the margin of a bay: 22Which is the bliss of solitude;

    11Ten thousand saw I at a glance, 23And then my heart with pleasure fills,

    12Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. 24And dances with the daffodils.
