Answer:

Repentant: feeling remorse to a degree marked by an extreme change.

Explanation:

The word <em>extreme </em>is a keyword here - it relates to very powerful and strong emotions caused by some kind of a change. Usually, something awful happens, or you do something really negative that affects a lot of other people, and then you feel repentant and wish that hadn't happened at all or that you could change the situation or your actions. The other options do not exhibit the same degree of regret as repentant does.

In what terms did Wordsworth describe the french revolution?
kkurt [141]

As it was an offense to write supporting the French Revolution, Wordsworth used his creativity to use figurative language and metaphors in order to disguise his true opinions on the issue.Because he was suspected of being some kind of French spy, he defended social justice and freedom of thought in ways only his readers and colleagues would understand.He described the revolution as fair because it was a scream for liberties people did not have.He also used words for showing his disapproval of the British attitude against the revolution.He mentioned the multitudes being oppressed, principles not taken into account and also said that these issues woke the anger of people ,who  for obvious reasons reacted violently
