Read Explanation:
Wordsworth and Coleridge jointly published Lyrical Ballads in 1798, marking the beginning of the Romantic Movement in English literature. The collection included several poems by Wordsworth and a few by Coleridge, the most famous being The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
Wordsworth’s poem "Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey" (commonly called Tintern Abbey) was the concluding poem of the 1798 edition of Lyrical Ballads. It is a reflective poem in blank verse, where Wordsworth revisits a beloved landscape and meditates on nature’s influence on his past, present, and future self.
