Read the excerpt from "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud."

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

Answer:

Lonely.

Explanation:

The word “lonely” in the first line of this, the most famous poem written by Wordsworth, can be said to have a negative connotation, one related to melancholy and a meditative mood. However, as the poem progresses, especially in the last lines, one can see that this meditative mood is, in fact, not only negative, but also conducive to a kind of beatific solitude that makes the poet rejoice in the sight of the daffodils.
