"i wandered lonely as a cloud"

1 i wandered lonely as a cloud
2 that floats on high o'er vales and hills,
3 when all at once i saw a crowd,
4 a host, of golden daffodils;
5 beside the lake, beneath the trees,
6 fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

7 continuous as the stars that shine
8 and twinkle on the milky way,
9 they stretched in never-ending line
10 along the margin of a bay:
11 ten thousand saw i at a glance,
12tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

13the waves beside them danced; but they
14out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
15a poet could not but be gay,
16in such a jocund company: (jocund=happy)
17 i gazed—and gazed—but little thought
18 what wealth the show to me had brought:

19 for oft, when on my couch i lie (oft-often)
20 in vacant or in pensive mood, (pensive=thoughtful
21 they flash upon that inward eye
22 which is the bliss of solitude;
23 and then my heart with pleasure fills,
24 and dances with the daffodils.

In this excerpt from "quality" by john galsworthy, which two parts clearly indicate the literary point of view of the essay? that tenement had a certain quiet distinction; there was no sign upon its face that he made for any of the royal family—merely his own german name of gessler brothers; and in the window a few pairs of boots. i remember that it always troubled me to account for those unvarying boots in the window, for he made only what was ordered, reaching nothing down, and it seemed so inconceivable that what he made could ever have failed to fit. had he bought them to put there? that, too, seemed inconceivable. he would never have tolerated in his house leather on which he had not worked himself. besides, they were too beautiful—the pair of pumps, so inexpressibly slim, the patent leathers with cloth tops, making water come into one's mouth, the tall brown riding boots with marvellous sooty glow, as if, though new, they had been worn a hundred years. those pairs could only have been made by one who saw before him the soul of boot—so truly were they prototypes incarnating the very spirit of all foot-gear. these thoughts, of course, came to me later, though even when i was promoted to him, at the age of perhaps fourteen, some inkling haunted me of the dignity of himself and brother. for to make boots—such boots as he made—seemed to me then, and still seems to me, mysterious and wonderful.
