The writings include: a holograph corrected proof of his "Sonnet 8: To the Author of the 'Robbers'" ; several holograph poems ; and two poems by William Lisle Bowles copied out in Coleridge's hand. The bulk of the correspondence is dated between 1792 and 1794 and discusses both his professional and personal lives, most of which is published in the Collected Letters edited by E. L. Griggs. Correspondents include: Sara Fricker Coleridge, his wife ; Mary Robinson, author and actress ; Charles Augustus Tulk, Swedenborgian writer and politician ; and over a dozen others.
