‘DAFFODILSI wandered lonely as a cloudThat floats on high o’er vales

and hills.

When all at once I saw a crowd,A host of golden daffodils;

Continuous as the stars that shine

And twinkle on the milky way.

Ten thousand saw I at a glanceTossing their heads in sprightly

dance,

A poet could not be but gay;In such a jocund company !I gazed and gazed but little

thought
