Episode description
A comparison of the Invocation to Book 3 of Paradise Lost and The Intimations Ode, which we complete reading. Celestial light vs. the light of common day. The mirror image similarities Wordsworth explores: he (now) sees only those things visible to mortal sight, in contrast to Milton. Loss as gain and the fall from heaven in both poets.
