Changes

Wordsworth published his first works of poetry in 1793, including Descriptive Sketches and An Evening Walk. He would later publish, with the help of his friend Samuel Coleridge, the Lyrical Ballads. In the preface to the Lyrical Ballads, Wordsworth declared that the book's object was "to choose incidents and situations from common life and to relate or describe them... in a selection of language really used by men, tracing in them the primary laws of our nature."
