This line most relates to which element of Romanticism?"I’d rather beA Pagan suckled in a creed outworn”

A	Emotion over logic
B	Youth/innocence
C	Nature
D	Rejecting tradition

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Is the poet ‘standing on this pleasant lea’ in his imagination, or in the future? A pagan suckled in a creed outworn means he wants to have been born to a pagan family (suckled) who believed in archaic Gods (creed outworn).

Detailed explanation-2: -Paganism refers to the polytheistic beliefs that involve celestial beings acting as gods to different aspects of nature whether it is the sun, sea, or the sky.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pagans were the people of Southern Europe, they were not worshippers of a monotheistic God. They were rustics or rural folk. Wordsworth admires their tradition and perceives that to be close to nature he should be one of them. He wishes to feed on and relish the mesmerising beauty of the nature.
