What are the romantic aspects of this poem?

The poem is called "Wadner like a lonely 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.

What are the romantic aspects of this poem?
The usage of nature throughout the poem is considered a highly romantic technique; also, the syntactical style yields to romantacism. If you'll notice, the author uses latinate words as opposed to an anglo-saxin vocabulary. Latinate, obviously words from latin, french, or other "romantic" languages, are more meliflious. Anglo saxon works, such as beowulf, are not considered to be in the romantic genre. The word beowulf in itself is very anglo saxon. It's harsh sounding.

Here's an example: dentist is a latinate word. The same thing, an odontologist, is considered anglo saxon. The suffix "ology" in instelf is anglo saxon. Pensive, sparkling, bliss, twinkle; these are all very romantic, latinate words. This is a very complicated concept, but I hope I'm clearly explaining it.

Your teacher would be very impressed if you discussed the linguistics and how they contribute to the poems romantasicm.
