10) How can wealth come to the poet by looking at the scene before him?

· The "crowd" of daffodils comes his way offering warmth, spiritual wealth, richness and value. He realizes the true wealth of the daffodils, when his inner eye recalls back to time of hapiness with them when he felt depressed in his normal state of mind. (Is it fine?)

11) What happens to the poet when he lies on his couch?

· When the poet lies on his couch, the sight of the beautiful daffodils moves on the screen of his mind and he again finds the same pleasure and excitement that he (had/has/no helping verb) experienced long ago. (Kindly rephrase it showing a bit more eloquence, but precisely, if possible.)

12) Mention the two moods of the poet.(Don’t know where and how to start answering the question. Could you please answer it?)

13) How can the heart dance? (Please answer the question.)

14) Has this ever happened to you?(I don’t recall any encounter like this. Has this ever happened to you. If so, Please answer the question.)

15) In the poem how does Wordsworth achieve the seemingly effortless effect of implying the unity of his consciousness with nature? Does this technique appear in any other Wordsworth lyrics?

· Wordsworth employs a kind of identity-switching technique, whereby nature is personified and humanity is, so to speak, nature-ized. Wordsworth describes himself as wandering "like a cloud," and describes the field of daffodils as a dancing crowd of people. This kind of interchangeable terminology implies a unity--metaphors from either realm can be applied to the other, because the mind and the natural world are one. A more subtle version of this technique appears in "Intimations of Immortality," in which the poet describes the natural world in the final stanza with a sequence of ascribed actions and characteristics previously performed and possessed in the poem by human beings. (OK?)

16) Describe the scene in your own words.

The poet says that, wandering like a cloud floating above hills and valleys, he encountered a field of daffodils beside a lake. The dancing, fluttering flowers stretched endlessly along the shore, and though the waves of the lake danced beside the flowers, the daffodils outdid the water in glee. The poet says that he could not help but be happy in such a joyful company of flowers. He says that he stared and stared, but did not realize what wealth the scene would bring him. For now, whenever he feels "vacant" or "pensive," the memory flashes upon "that inward eye / That is the bliss of solitude," and his heart fills with pleasure, "and dances with the daffodils." (Does the part italicized also come under the description of the scene?)

17) What is the central idea of the poem? Give it with a very short introduction of the poet and poem.

ABOUT THE POEM

It was first published in 1807, and a revised version was released in 1815. In anthologies the poem is sometimes titled "The Daffodils".The poem paints a picture of peace and tranquility.
