Read through the following poem by william wordsworth. write a short description for each section of the explication below. i added the dotted lines because canvas wouldn't leave a space between the verses. i have also added line numbers and some definitions to the side.

"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.

Read this excerpt from i never had it made. "it's all that ought to count," he replied. "but it isn't. maybe one of these days it will be all that counts. that is one of the reasons i've got you here, robinson. if you're a good enough man, we can make this a start in the right direction. but let me tell you, it's going to take an awful lot of courage." he was back to the crossroads question that made me start to get angry minutes earlier. he asked it slowly and with great care. "have you got the guts to play the game no matter what happens? " "i think i can play the game, mr. rickey," i said. the next few minutes were tough. branch rickey had to make absolutely sure that i knew what i would face. beanballs would be thrown at me. i would be called the kind of names which would hurt and infuriate any man. i would be physically attacked. could i take all of this and control my temper, remain steadfastly loyal to our ultimate aim? which is the central idea of this excerpt?
