Lesson outcome

I can explain how Wordsworth uses language and structure to present the beauty of nature and the imperfection of mankind in 'Lines Written in Early Spring'.

Show transcript
Wordsworth presents nature as beautiful and harmonious through vocabulary and euphonic sounds. Arguably, Wordsworth presents nature as beautiful and harmonious to suggest we should have reverence for nature. On the other hand, Wordsworth may present nature as beautiful to emphasise the chaos of mankind. Wordsworth breaking the regular rhyme and rhythm could represent the imperfections of mankind.
