Lines Written in Early Spring - William Wordsworth

A reading of "Lines Written in Early Spring" - A poem by William Wordsworth

In 1798, William Wordsworth, poet to ‘Lines Written in Early Spring’, was to publish a volume of poetry known as ‘Lyrical Ballads‘ with his then-friend Samuel Taylor Coleridge. In 1802, they published this volume again, this time with a preface written by William Wordsworth himself, wherein he attempted to explain the reasoning for writing his poetry. He wrote, ‘what is a Poet? He is a man speaking to men’, a movement away from an idealized notion of the poet having some higher aim in life and some God-ordained talent to write to educate others.
