Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Coleridge and Opium Eating: And Other Writings Coleridge. - From some misconception at the press, the account of Coleridge´s personal appearance, in the paper entitled Coleridge and Opium-Eating, was printed off whilst yet imperfect, and, in fact, wanting its more interesting half. It had been suggested to me, as a proper off-set to a very inaccurate report characterising Coleridge´s person and conversation, by an American traveller, who had, however, the excuse that his visit was a very hasty one, and that Coleridge had then become corpulent and heavy - wearing some indications that already (though, according to my present remembrance, not much more than forty-eight at that time) he had entered within the shadows of premature old age. The authorities for my counter-report are - 1. A Bristol lady who with her sisters had become successors in a young ladies´ boarding-school to the celebrated Hannah More; 2. Wordsworth, in his supplementary stanzas to the Castle of Indolence; 3. Two (if not three) artists. These shall be first called into court, as deposing to Coleridge´s figure, i.e., to the permanent base in the description - all the rest being fugitive accompaniments.
