I wandered disappointed as a cloud
I only bought this book for one poem 'I wandered lonely as a cloud', however it is not represented in this book as I had memorized it years ago. It is a verse shorter and the words are different and less poetic. The poem in my memory is better: '... a host of golden daffodils, beside the lake, beneath the trees, fluttering and dancing in the breeze.' This true version of the poem can be found in Palgrave's golden treasury, which I have since acquired.

A great introduction
This book is a great introduction to anyone wanting to read Wordworth's poetry. It has many of his greats and offers an interesting look into his life by the editor. It is the perfect introduction to both Wordsworth and the Romanticism Era
