I don't think he liked him as Eliot's 'prelude' was a rebuke against Wordworths. Wordsworth, in Eliot's opinion, was "highbrow" and didn't appeal to the masses. Only a minority elite. However, Eliot, despite his ambiguous poetry, wanted to connect with the masses and allow everyone (like Woolf) to enjoy literary books/ poetry.

T.S. Eliot held a complex view of William Wordsworth, respecting his contribution to English poetry while also critiquing his romanticism as being too subjective and lacking intellectual rigor. Eliot admired Wordsworth's emphasis on emotional authenticity but criticized his tendency for sentimentality and lack of formal discipline in his poetry.
