The second page of the Extract from The Prelude poem pdf focuses on the aftermath of the narrator's encounter with the mountain. It describes his return to shore and the long-lasting psychological impact of the experience.
Upon reaching the safety of land, the narrator leaves his boat and returns home. However, the experience has profoundly affected him, altering his perception of the world around him.
Quote: "But after I had seen / That spectacle, for many days, my brain / Worked with a dim and undetermined sense / Of unknown modes of being."
The narrator describes a sense of darkness and solitude that has settled over his thoughts. The familiar, pleasant images of nature that he once knew have been replaced by a vague, unsettling sense of something greater and more mysterious.
Highlight: This section emphasizes the transformative power of the sublime experience, showing how it can alter one's perception of reality.
The poem concludes with the narrator describing how the memory of the mountain continues to trouble his dreams. The "mighty forms" that now occupy his mind are contrasted with the "familiar shapes" and "pleasant images" that he can no longer see clearly.
Definition: Solitude - A state of being alone, often associated with isolation or reflection.
This Detailed analysis of the prelude poem line by line reveals how Wordsworth uses the encounter with the mountain as a metaphor for the loss of innocence and the gaining of a more complex, albeit troubling, understanding of the world.
Example: The lasting impact of the experience is similar to how a soldier might replay a battle in their mind, as referenced in other poems.

This page introduces the setting and initial action of the poem. The narrator describes a summer evening when he finds a small boat tied to a willow tree. He unties it and sets off across the lake, initially feeling confident and skilled in his rowing. The peaceful scene is described with vivid imagery, emphasizing the beauty of the natural surroundings.
Highlight: The poem begins with a sense of tranquility and innocence, which is later disrupted by the appearance of the mountain.
The narrator's confidence is evident as he rows towards a specific point on the horizon. However, this confidence is shattered when a huge, black peak suddenly appears from behind the craggy ridge he had been focusing on.
Quote: "When, from behind that craggy steep till then / The horizon's bound, a huge peak, black and huge, / As if with voluntary power instinct, / Upreared its head."
The mountain is personified, described as if it has its own will and purpose. This creates a sense of the sublime - a mixture of awe and terror in the face of nature's power.
Vocabulary: Sublime - A quality in nature that inspires awe and terror simultaneously.
The narrator's reaction to this sight is one of fear and retreat. He turns the boat around and stealthily makes his way back to shore, now feeling like an intruder in nature's domain.
Example: The change in the narrator's demeanor is evident in the shift from confident rowing to "trembling oars" and stealing away "through the silent water".

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
