Wandered lonely as a Cloud
That floats on high
o'er Vales
and Hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd
A
host
of dancing
Daffodils
;
Along the Lake, beneath the trees,
Ten thousand dancing in the breeze.
The waves beside them danced, but they
Outdid the sparkling waves in glee:--
A Poet could not but be gay
In such a laughing company.
o'er Vales:
over valleys
host:
a vast number
daffodils:
,
yellow flowers
(from
Poems
by William Wordsworth)
