Which two sets of lines in William Wordsworth's poem reflect the poet’s view that nature’s beauty can live on in our memories an
d continue to delight us even after our experience with it has passed? 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.
You can find that idea in the last stanza. The poem is basically telling a story of how the persona saw daffodils while on a walk, and the sight was just so majestic and spectacular that it was almost a spiritual experience for him. The last stanza describes how that image would flash in his mind (inward eye) when he is just sitting around and relaxing (vacant or pensive mood) and then he is just filled happiness.
Carson puts two opposite forces, feelings or ideas to each-other. In the essay, these forces are love and fear. The author shows how these feelings work and what kind of effect they have on us. Love is a motivation, a positive feeling or something eradicates hate - in this essay fear. Fear, instead is something negative which wipes away love.
The first line says "secure", which rhymes with the word "sure" (this is at the end of the second line). The word at the end of the third line is "keeps", which rhymes with the word of the forth line, "sleeps".
