The Prelude is William Wordsworth’s autobiographical poem filled with meaningful and unforgettable things in his life. The emotion of love flows consistently from the first part to the last part of The Prelude. This paper is to study the change of his love by analysing the objects of his love. Wordsworth loves various persons including his sister, friend and the general public as well as the natures of his hometown. And he says that we must learn to love everything we know. He thinks of nature as the first object of his love until he becomes 22 years old but his thought changes through the French Revolution. So he regards the human being as the most important object of his love. This means that the object of his love changes from the nature to the human being. But Wordsworth comes to be disappointed with the human being while watching the cruel scenes of French Revolution. So he comes back to the hometown and finds delight and consolation in the nature. After returning to the nature, Wordsworth becomes happy and rediscovers his love for the human being through the love of Dorothy and Coleridge. His rediscovery of humanity makes him come to internal maturity and realize that the human nature has the divine force. So Wordsworth says that the mind of man can be a thousand times more beautiful than the earth and the poet’s duty is to show the way to make this thought come true, emphasizing “none-loving is same to hating”.
