Read "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" and answer the question.

[1] I 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 golden daffodils;
[5] Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10] Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15] A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20] In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

What does the poet describe in the second stanza?

The amount of people at the bay
The number of daffodils
The popular new dance move
The types of stars in the sky

In the second stanza, the poet describes the number of daffodils.

Answer: Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

'I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud' is one of the most pleasing poem by William Wordsworth which illustrates the beautiful nature and how nature's beauty have the power to brighten up a person's mood. In the second stanza, the poet describes how there are plenty of daffodils stretched all along the shore. It reminds him that just like there are millions of stars in the galaxy, in the same way there are thousands of daffodils all over the margin of a bay.
