So much help!!thank you señorita

Thanks 🙏 ma’am for Sharing valuable meaning of poem. It’s helpful because I am also a student of literature

So helpful! Thanks 🙏

I thoroughly enjoyed your explanations, have watched a couple of videos, so easy to understand and helps me become better at analyzing sonnets. Thank you very much. I was also happy to find a Petrarchan sonnet structure (contemporary, if not before the English sonnet): ABBA ABBA CDECDE but the sestet has many variations, could be CDCDCD and so on (as is here).

Glad you enjoyed it! 😁

Am on a deep dive into this sonnet, I like the way you approach it. Particularly noticing how, after the volta, he uses the first person voice to express the then radical idea that Christianity has created this sense of alienation from the universe. Also, that the real issue is feeling cut off from spiritual emotions, not so much from nature. In general, I think interpretations focus incorrectly on the industrial revolution, which came later. I think Wordsworth was rebelling against the Enlightenment and its emphasis on rationality.

Completely different from how I saw it. More like a lone person, overwhelmed, clinging to their own meaning. But, lovely channel and analysis.

Doing great work

Great God, if I was of a time of old, earlier than Christianity, I would summon the Great Gods of the Sea and flood this place.
