Read through the following poem by william wordsworth. write a short description for each section of the explication below. i added the dotted lines because canvas wouldn't leave a space between the verses. i have also added line numbers and some definitions to the side.

"i wandered lonely as a cloud"

1 i wandered lonely as a cloud
2 that floats on high o'er vales and hills,
3 when all at once i saw a crowd,
4 a host, of golden daffodils;
5 beside the lake, beneath the trees,
6 fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

7 continuous as the stars that shine
8 and twinkle on the milky way,
9 they stretched in never-ending line
10 along the margin of a bay:
11 ten thousand saw i at a glance,
12tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

13the waves beside them danced; but they
14out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
15a poet could not but be gay,
16in such a jocund company: (jocund=happy)
17 i gazed—and gazed—but little thought
18 what wealth the show to me had brought:

19 for oft, when on my couch i lie (oft-often)
20 in vacant or in pensive mood, (pensive=thoughtful
21 they flash upon that inward eye
22 which is the bliss of solitude;
23 and then my heart with pleasure fills,
24 and dances with the daffodils.
