Eery poem of Wordsworth contains a deep philosophy of life. For him, Nature is the cradle and philosophy of man. Man never has a life apart from Nature. Nature is man's eternal companion in every way. This poem truly reflects this aspect. 'Its own deep quiet to restore our hearts', ' 'Tis in truth The loneliest place we have among the clouds', ' whom I have loved With such communion, that no place on earth can ever be a solitude to me', ...these lines speak volumes indeed.
