• B. Love
• C. The River
• D. God

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Nature

In the final section of “Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey”, the speaker — William Wordsworth — reflects on his deep, spiritual connection with Nature and sees himself as a worshipper of Nature.

Lines from the poem:
"Therefore am I still
A lover of the meadows and the woods,
And mountains; and of all that we behold
From this green earth; of all the mighty world
Of eye, and ear,—both what they half create,
And what perceive; well pleased to recognize
In nature and the language of the sense
The anchor of my purest thoughts, the nurse,
The guide, the guardian of my heart, and soul
Of all my moral being."

In these lines, Nature is personified as a guide, guardian, and moral teacher. The speaker reveres Nature with religious intensity, thus portraying themselves as a worshipper of Nature.
