What does William Wordsworth mean by \"inward eye\" in the following bolded line?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 a 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.

A.) this poem

Can you help me.. What Is a Soliloquy?

Answers

"Soliloquy" is a fancy word for "talking to yourself".

It's usually used to mean a place in a movie or a play where
one of the characters is talking to himself, so that you get to
know what's on his mind without having other characters
around.

Hamlet's famous speech "To be or not to be, that is the question.",
and all the rest of it, is a soliloquy.  He's struggling with himself,
trying to decide whether to kill his stepfather the king or not, and
we get to hear the agony he's going through, as different thoughts
on his mind pull him both ways.
