Read the excerpt from the strange case of dr. jekyll and mr. hyde. the solemn butler knew and welcomed him; he was subjected to no stage of delay, but ushered direct from the door to the dining-room where dr. lanyon sat alone over his wine. this was a hearty, healthy, dapper, red-faced gentleman, with a shock of hair prematurely white, and a boisterous and decided manner. at sight of mr. utterson, he sprang up from his chair and welcomed him with both hands. the geniality, as was the way of the man, was somewhat theatrical to the eye; but it reposed on genuine feeling. how is dr. lanyon characterized in the excerpt?

the answer is b just took the tested

yes you could be a life guard if that the question.

wordsworth tends to see nature as 'out there'; a presence which surrounds humans, and contributes to human life, but is different from humans. if you look at a typical wordsworth poem (there was a boy, ye knew him well ye rocks) - wordsworth talks about nature as something that needs to be learned about and understood, nature is different from us.  

if you look at a byron poem (the isles of greece is a good one) - byron looks at nature mainly for what it already means to man. wordsworth will look at a landscape and see the mountains, trees, valleys, and rivers as almost spiritual presences - wordsworth wants to get to know nature.  

byron will look at the same landscape and he will want to know who lives there, what are the villages? are there any farms or mines, is there some history?  

wordsworth looks at nature for what it is; byron is forever asking what it means.  

wordsworth thinks that humans are part of nature; byron thinks that nature is part of being human
