Read the poem.

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.

how does the image of the daffodils as "stars that shine / and twinkle on the milky way" create a tone that conveys the theme that the memory of something beautiful can bring lasting joy?

a.) the image creates a nostalgic tone that show readers that the past is of great importance to the speaker.

b.) the image creates a concerned tone that suggests the way the environment inspires both elation and fear in the speaker.

c.) the image creates a baffled tone that suggests the deep mystery that the speaker feels over what he's seen.

d.) the image creates an admiring tone that readers understand why the speaker seeks to recall the happiness he felt.
