Autograph manuscript commonplace book, [ca. 1796].

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/270904486

This copy-book contains fair copies of original poems and extracts from poetry and prose by other authors. It includes 6 of Coleridge's poems in their entirety; a fragment of a Robert Southey poem, "The retrospect"; fragments of two of Coleridge's poems, "The kiss" and "Imitated from Ossian"; some notes and a list of articles of clothing; a prose piece that begins "On the morning of the 17th (Jan. 1795) I was sent upon a particular duty"; "An irregular ode to the moon" by Thomas Dermody; a poem entitled "Verses written on the gates of Bologna" that appeared in The annual register, or a view of the history, politicks, and literature, of the year 1761; and a prose piece that begins "My dear Mister Printer" and ends "Patrick O'Flaherty. Ballybooby, Tripperary." The prose pieces were likely copied from Anthologia Hibernica (Dublin, 1793) and were probably part of Coleridge's preparations for his own periodical, The watchman (1796).
