Description
1830 1ed The Devil’s Walk Coleridge & Southey Political Satire Poem CruikshankRobert Southey and Samuel Taylor Coleridge were notable 18th-century English romance poets, known for being one of the Lake Poets. The two often collaborated on their works and one such instance was the work ‘The Devil’s Thoughts’. This work was misattributed to Richard Porson [even on the title page on this edition!], and retitled ‘The Devil’s Walk’ in 1827. ‘The Devil’s Walk’ is a satirical poem on politics; Southey originally wrote the first few stanzas and Coleridge supplemented the end. According to Holmes in ‘Early Visions,’“The first three stanzas of this inspired piece of political cartooning were composed by Southey…the remaining fourteen were dashed off by Coleridge.”This 1830 first edition is a first printing noted by the omission of pages 21 and 22 in the pagination. In addition to being a first printing, this work is quite desirable for the inclusion of the illustrations of Robert Cruikshank.
