Answer: The Maid lived in a rural setting.
Explanation:
The poem is about a maid called Lucy who was very beautiful whilst she was alive. Her beauty was not acknowledged or praised by people however, because she was in a lonely area.
The adjective, "untrodden" is meant to symbolize that she stayed in a rural setting such as a village or countryside because these places do not see a lot of people coming to them which means that they do not get the chance to step/ tread on these areas.
Shakespeare's time was from about the middle of the end to the end of the Renaissance. One change from his time is woman's rights. Women were looked down upon when it came to many things like sailing and because of this, some became pirates. Two famous pirates from the renaissance were Grace O'Malley and Charlotte De Berry. Another change is that there were more governments with queens or kings and royalty/dynasties ruled instead of elected people.
