Love Of Nature First Stage
1,418 words

familiar speech. Wordsworth's explicit love of
nature and mastery of the language allowed him to
bring such emotion and power into each poem
without the use of sophisticated words, which he
believes takes away the effect of what is trying
to be said. His intentions were such that any man
capable of reading, well educated or not, could
feel these emoti...

and suck the morning dew, while the rose unfolds.
The shepherd in the hills happily blows the top
notes of his pipe. The gathered gloats over his
white kids. Sailors race across the thrashing
waves. Their canvas full of the harmless breeze.
Drinkers acclaim the grape-giver Dionysus, capping

happiness. She represented that in emphatically
self-conscience romantic idioms. The following

The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, an early poem
by T. S. Eliot (1888 - 1965) in the form of a

absence of love, and the poem, so far from being a
song, is a meditation on the failure of romance.
The opening image of evening (traditionally the
time of love making) is disquieting, rather than
consoling or seductive, and the evening becomes a
patient (Sp...
