Question

According to wordsworth what is the relationship in his poem between feelings and action

Answer 1

In Macbeth, Shakespeare throws out a great line about how one's "function should not be smothered by surmise."  The implication is that action and feelings are two different entities.  Romanticism did not preach such an element, but rather sought to bring thought and action together.  Romanticism was a response to Neoclassicist theory and the Scientific Revolution.  In both of these movements, thought, calculation, and deduction were praised and lauded.
