The biggest challenge of this poem is some of the archaic language that it uses. That will happen when there's more than two hundred years between you and the poet. Don't take it personally, though. Wordsworth was actually trying to write as simply and directly as possible. Just check out "Calling Card" if you don't believe us. Once you have the vocab under your belt, you can just enjoy the ride to Lucy's cottage—until the end, anyway.
