Select the correct answer. read "i wandered lonely as a cloud" by william wordsworth: 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 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. which characteristic of the poem suggests that it is a lyric poem? a. the natural setting and complete narrative quality b. the emotional response the daffodils evoke in the speaker c. the personification of the clouds, waves, and daffodils d. the time gap between the speaker's experience and his narration
