Wordsworth: The Tables Turned
Wordsworth wrote in his Preface to Lyrical Ballads, the collection of poems in which The Tables Turned first appeared: "There will also be found in these volumes little of what is usually called poetic diction; I have taken as much pains to avoid it as others ordinarily take to produce it; this I have done (...) to bring my language near to the language of men (...)"
Does Wordsworth reach his goal of writing in the language of med in this poem? Explain and exemplify, please!
