Evidence: | Robert Southey to John May, 6 October 1797: 'Coleridge has so far compleated his tragedy that he has only the task of correcting it to perform. he passed thro Bath & read it to me. it is wonderfully fine — it must secure its own success, & my own opinion of it is so high that I should not be surprized were it again to make tragedy fashionable. you know Sheridan requested him to write it. his profits will be 5 or 600£.' |
