William Wordsworth recited to Dorothy a strikingly irresolute poem he had composed about his own solitude. Here the poet at first sees his isolation as a wholly positive escape from the timorous verbalizations of the human mind. The human mind's ability to discriminate merely blinds their to the one truth which embraces all truths: In which all beings live with god, themselves Are god, existing in one mighty whole, As undistinguishable as the cloudless east At noon is from the cloudless west, when all The hemisphere is one cerulean blue. The autobiographical verse often uses the imagery of a literally 'interior life' where the poet's heart and lungs make tangible a reciprocation which can hardly be made visible. Vividly visual description almost inevitably records those very distinctions which such poetry seeks to obliterate. So Tintern Abbey has to speak 'with an eye made quie' if it is to 'see into the life of things' rather than focus on their surfaces.
