Tintern Abbey Explained

In order to compare/contrast Wordsworth's poem, "Tintern Abbey," I think that my readers must first know what Tintern Abbey is. For Wordsworth, it was a place of religious sentiment which he longed to revisit, and did so whether in physical body, or in his memories. It brought him tranquility in his unsettled life.
