3. What does the poet mean when he uses the word “wealth”?

In the context of the poem, the speaker gazes around at a meadow full of daffodils, without fully understanding how much the scene really means to him. He remembers the moment later on in his life and it brings him COMFORT. With this in mind, think about what the poet means when he speaks of wealth.

In this situation, wealth does not mean money.

Think about a precious memory you have. When you were experiencing that moment, did you know how precious it was? Did you know how much “wealth” it would bring you in the future?

The daffodils that the poet gazed at brought him ____ in days of sadness.

Fill in the blank with an accurate word and your choice will correspond with “wealth” and what it means in this poem.

HINT: I mentioned the word in the first paragraph of my answer. It’s in caps.
