I.e., the world is always changing, but as we get older, we become rational beings that construct of solid vision of what we think the reality is. The intuitive person operates perceives the world he looks upon today, as something new and different from yesterday. In other words, Wordsworth is trying to say that his boyhood vision has gone stale, so he abandons it and looks on it anew.

"Heaven lies about us in our infancy! Shades of the prison-house begin to close upon the growing Boy but he beholds the light, and whence it flows, he sees it in his joy."
I think Wordsworth was more in line with Nietzsche's Overman, where it is not about holding on to childhood vision, but having new visions; i.e., attempting to look upon the world ever day as if you've never seen it before.
