I (wander) lonely as cloud

When all at once I (see) crowd,  

  host of daffodils,  

Beside lake, beneath trees,

Fluttering and dancing in breeze.  

   

Continuous as stars that shine  

  And on Milky Way,  

They (stretch) in never-ending line  

  Along margin of bay:

Ten thousand (see) I at glance,  

Tossing their heads in sprightly .  

   

waves beside them (dance), but they  

  (Outdo) sparkling waves in glee: –  

poet (can) not but be gay

  In such jocund company!  

I (gaze), and (gaze), but little thought  

What wealth show to me had (bring):  

   

For oft, when on my couch I lie  

  In vacant or in pensive ,

They upon that inward eye  

  Which is bliss of solitude;  

And then my heart with pleasure ,  

And dances with daffodils.
