An extract from the long poem on my own poetical education. It was first published by Coleridge in his “Friend,” which is the reason of its having had a place in every edition of my poems since.

This and the Extract [cf. “Influence of Natural Objects”] and the first Piece of this Class, are from the unpublished Poem of which some account is given in the Preface to the EXCURSION.
