Nature is comparable, in this sense, to a religion in which Wordsworth has definite faith in it converting a person from a lower place in life, to an elevated place: “How blest, delicious scene! the eye that greets, / Thy open beauties, or thy lone retreats” (Wordsworth 16). Wordsworth writes that the man “Is left to muse upon the solemn scene,” (Wordsworth 54) which evidently suggests that Wordsworth sees the origin of wonders and happiness, as nature (as if it were supernatural or spiritual). In the poem “A Night Piece,” there is a man who seems to be living his routinely, unobservant life, when he finally takes a pause and gazes up to the sky, and that that time the wonders of nature are revealed to him. Observing the largest looming mountains to the smallest flower encourages the brain to contemplate bigger, deeper, and more passionately. To Wordsworth and the themes that his works revolve around, the most important connections consist of nature and its impacts on the human mind, humanity in the Romantic era, and the powers of memory.Ĭonsistent throughout the poetry of William Wordsworth nature stands with a strong and important purpose that can help people become more deep and intensive rather than shallow or surfaced.
The quote, “Happiness (if she had been to be found on earth) among the charms of Nature,” suggests that if happiness is actually existent and attainable by people on earth, then he believes it would be found directly among nature and the natural.
No thematic discussion on the poetry of William Wordsworth would be complete without the topic of nature.
