William Wordsworth (7 April 1770 –
23 April 1850) was a major English Romantic poet who, with Samuel Taylor
Coleridge, helped to launch the Romantic Age in English literature with the
1798 joint publication Lyrical Ballads.
Wordsworth's magnum opus is
generally considered to be The Prelude, a semiautobiographical poem of his
early years which he revised and expanded a number of times. It was
posthumously titled and published, prior to which it was generally known as the
poem "to Coleridge". Wordsworth was Britain's Poet Laureate from 1843
until his death in 1850.
"I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" (also commonly known as
"Daffodils") is a lyric poem by William Wordsworth.
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 dancing Daffodils;
Along the Lake, beneath the trees,
Ten thousand dancing in the breeze.
The waves beside them danced, but
they
Outdid the sparkling waves in glee:
-
A poet could not but be gay
In such a laughing company:
I gaz'd - and gaz'd - but little
thought
What wealth the shew 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.
Anthropomorphism, or personification, is attribution of human form
or other characteristics to anything other than a human being. Examples include
depicting deities with human form and ascribing human emotions or motives to
forces of nature, such as hurricanes or earthquakes.
Bert and Ernie are two Muppet characters who are major protagonists
on the popular U.S. children's television show Sesame Street that appear
together in numerous skits. Originated by Frank Oz and Jim Henson, the
characters are currently performed by Muppeteers Eric Jacobson and Steve
Whitmire, with Oz performing Bert occasionally since 2000. Ernie is orange and
Bert is yellow.
