The speaker projecting the boy's shadow and personifying him in a way that helps us to see the world through a child's eyes with all of its wonder and innocence.


We all know why the shadow didn't go with the boy, as he left "before the sun was up," but at the same time, there is something that makes the speaker refer to his shadow as "an arrant sleepy-head."


The speaker being an innocent child restored something of the wonder of childhood to us.
