[ca. 1834]. 2 pages on one leaf, 8vo, 21 lines, inlaid, slightly foxed. This poem was first published under the general title “Association of Ideas” in Fraser’s Magazine , January 1835 in the article “Coleridgeiana.” It did not appear in book form until the collected edition of the poems in 1893. The Oxford 1912 edition of Coleridge’s Works refers to this manuscript draft in a footnote: “Written in pencil on the blank leaf of a book of lectures delivered at the London University [‘1830’?], in which the Hartleyan doctrine of association was assumed as a true basis.” The present manuscript most certainly is that “blank leaf”; the first page is numbered on the top as page “21”.
