Overview
Poems on various subjects 1796 sold well enough for a 'second edition' to appear in the following year, Coleridge replacing about a third of the original with new poems, including 'Ode on the departing year', 'To the river Otter', and a revised text of his major poem 'Religious Musings'. The decision to include sections by his schoolfellow Charles Lamb and his protege Charles Lloyd came at an important moment. In his Nehemiah Higginbottom sonnets of November 1797 Coleridge ridiculed the affected simplicity of style of many of the poems, a criticism his collaborators took personally. Lloyd had his revenge in the following year with his novel Edmund Oliver, and Lamb for the first and only time in his life cut himself off from his great friend and mentor.
