What does William Wordsworth mean by "wealth" in the following bolded line? 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; 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 Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in a sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: 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 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.
{A.} the time spent walking
{B.} the cost of daffodils

Respuesta :

The word wealth, as used by William Wordsworth in this poem, means A. the time he spent walking.

The wealth the poet gained from having spent an afternoon walking and then coming across a field full of daffodils is the memory itself. Its beauty and vividness still fills his heart with pleasure. Recalling the exquisite scenery makes him happy in times of melancholy or boredom.

This poem was written after Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy went walking one afternoon and discovered a belt of beautiful daffodils spreading along their path.
