Wordsworth's PantheismsteemCreated with Sketch.

in wordsworth •  7 years ago 

The greatest contribution of Wordsworth to the poetry of Nature is his unqualified pantheism. He believes that God shines through all the object of Nature, investing them with a celestial light- "a light that never was on sea or land," He finds Him in the shining of the stars; he marks Him in the flowering of the finds'. This immanence of God in Nature, gives him mystic visions. Nature is on longer a mere vegetation; Subject to the law of growth and decay; not a collection of object to be described but a manifestation of God. Nature is a Revelation and Wordsworth is the prophet.

 Wordsworth came to believe that beneath the matter of universe there was a soul, a living principle, acting,, even thinking. It may be living, at least, speaking to him, communicating to him..
                 In all things, in all natures, in the stars 
               This active principle abides, from link to link,
             It circulates the soul of all the worlds.![william-wordsworth-3.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmSLfhL7EMBQ9B6CQnokgP8M47u5TuJarb4XkWwCekdx7q/william-wordsworth-3.jpg)
