God in Wordsworth's first poem given name (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

woden

'god' is the definition.
(I know that Woden is a Anglo-Saxon deity)

'wordsworth's first poem given name' is the wordplay.
'wordsworth's first' becomes 'w' (1st letter of 'wordsworth').
'poem' becomes 'ode' (ode is a type of poem).
'given' says to put letters next to each other.
'name' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation e.g. on forms).
'w'+'ode'+'n'='WODEN'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for woden that I've seen before include "Norse god" , "godlike figure" , "Odin" , "Foremost Anglo-Saxon god" .)
