Présentation de l'éditeur
Unpublijhed Letters ;curious as bowing, more fully than has hitherto been done, the circumftances under which Coleridge adopted and afterwards relinquifhed the profeffion of a Unitarian minifter. Two diftinguiflied literary men have fpoken of the time, to which the moft important of thefe letters refer. In Hazlitt s Myfirft ac quaintance with Poets, which he contributed to The Liberal, he fpeaks of walking, when a boy, ten miles to Shrewftmry to hear Coleridge preach, for a poet and a philofopher getting up into a Uni tarian pulpit to preach the Gofpel, was a romance in thofe degenerate days, a fort of revival of the primitive fpirit of Chriftianity, which was not to be refifted. It was fome eight or nine years afterwards that DeQ uincey met Coleridge.
