2. wordsworth’s “i wandered lonely as a cloud” and “to a butterfly” and coleridge’s “sonnet to the river otter” and “lines to a beautiful spring in a village” all deal with memories. choose two of these poems, and explain for each poem what the speaker suggests about how the natural world affects people’s memories. how does this function of the natural world fit with the romantic view of nature? write your answer in two paragraphs of at least four sentences each.

In “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud”, Flowers are spring flowers and Wordsworth uses them as a physical thing that refers to an idea or emotion for youth. It is romanticized but in old age the mind dwells mostly in the past, which the poet does at the end of the poem. Although on the nature of the poem it is in reality about growing old and having memories of youth.

explanation:

the silver bells of the sleds are merry and keep time in the winter nights while the sky twinkles happily. the golden bells of weddings are delightful in their peaceful happiness, foretelling a rapturous future. meanwhile, the brazen alarm bells scream frightfully in the night, with a discordant and desperate sound. in their clamor, these bells convey terror, horror, and anger. finally, the iron bells are solemn and melancholy, while those in the church steeple are like ghouls who feel happiness. the king of the ghouls, who rings the bells, cheerfully keeps time with the moaning and groaning bells.
