    The norwegian band Prudence (1969-1975) composed music to William Wordsworth's "Lines Written in Early Spring" and they called it "What Man Has Made of Man" and was released in 1972 on their debut album "Tomorrow May Be Vanished". The record label Polydor made a mistake back then and composer/singer Åge Aleksandersen has tried to correct it ever since, William Wordsworth was not credited as songwriter Musically, Prudence is a mix of Jethro Tull and The Band with hints of Deep Purple, Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix ruclips.net/video/uLc-bcxNmWc/видео.html

    As a Yorkshire woman, I always laugh when people such as narrators or actors, give a regional accent to their portrayal of educated people. William and Dorothy and Samuel would have been well spoken; there is NO WAY that a man could enter Oxford or Cambridge universities by using a regional accent and grammar school children would be well spoken and not have regional accents! The same applies to Patrick Bronte who was also a Cambridge student. Even today, strong regional accents in Oxbridge interviews will not be an asset. I hear this from parents and young people in 2021.
