Explanation:

The Lion and The Mouse:(the moral is that an act of kindness is never wasted) A wealthy king upon his daily stroll through his kingdom ran into a starving beggar."May you consider sparing me just one meal "the beggar croaked. "What would benifit me, If I spare you a meal" the king said as he looked down upon the filthy man who even dared to speak to the king."I will immensely repay you one day ,please just feed me one meal".The King hesitated at first but he took the beggar back to his castle and let the poor man feast upon delicacies cooked by the Kings chef."Thank you for the meal your majesty and I promise I will repay you" .The King chuckled "I have no clue how a poor man will repay me but your welcome". Some days later,The king set off on his daily stroll but this time instead of a starving man he ran into robbers with knives."Take me to the castle vaults or I'll peirce your throat with this knife" one of the robbers said. All of a sudden from a distance the King hears the voice of the beggar "Hold on your majesty, I told you I would repay you".The beggar now dressed in the clothing of a knight swung by on a horse and knocked the robbers down to their feet and swept up the king to safety. "A poor man didn't repay you but a lost and starving knight did" the old beggar said."I appologize for the comments I made before, a "poor man" repaid me with my life and for that I am glad that I spared you a meal".

“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 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.

“She walks in beauty”

She walks in beauty, like the night

Of cloudless climes and starry skies;

And all that’s best of dark and bright

Meet in her aspect and her eyes:

Thus mellow’d to that tender light

Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,

Had half imapir’d the nameless grace

Which waves in every raven tress,

Or softly lightens o’er her face;

Where thoughts serenely sweet express

How pure, how dear their dwelling place.

And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,

So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,

The smiles that win, the tints that glow,

But tell of days in goodness spent,

A mind at peace with all below,

A heart whose love is innocent!

“Ode to the West Wind”

O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn’s being,

Thou from whose unseen presence the leaves dead

Are driven like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing,

Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red,

Pestilence-stricken multitudes! O thou

Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed

The wingèd seeds, where they lie cold and low,

Each like a corpse within its grave, until

Thine azure sister of the Spring shall blow

Her clarion o’er the dreaming earth, and fill

(Driving sweet buds like flocks to feed in air)

With living hues and odours plain and hill;

Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere;

Destroyer and preserver; hear, O hear!

Answer:

         The primary idea of Shelley's poem ,“Ode to the West Wind” by Percy Bysshe Shelley, is that with tragedy comes a beauty. The same wind that blows a city down can also bring in new life. There is a very optimistic point of view in the poem. William Wordsworth doe include these feelings in his idea, however looking into the situation and finding the optimistic point of view is not as much present. His idea relies on emotion and feeling rather than reason.

         “She Walks in Beauty” by Lord Byron (George Gordon) is a rhyming poem that portrays the idea that a women physical apperance is dependent on her inner being. If a women has a beautiful soul, she will also be beautiful. He uses the ideas of light and dark to describe this women. Williams idea go along well with this poem because its based on how pretty someone is. It also is that feeling of connection with someone. Its a very emotion based writing.

         “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” by William Wordsworth, is a writing about a boy wandering on a cloud. He used "wandering" instead of walking, because it gives the meaning more purpose, as if he had a reason to explore this cloud. In the entire poem he felt as if it was only him and a reminisance of his past. This led to him feeling alone and stuck in his thoughts. I think that though it is not emotion with another person, its his true feelings within himself. I believe this directly alligns with Williams thoughts.
