Scope and Contents

Letter: London, to Robert Baldwin, London

ALS. Probably in response to a request for submission of his work to London Magazine, Coleridge explains that "for the last year I have been importuned, I might almost say pestered by my best friends to comply with very handsome terms offered me by Mr. Blackwood . . . till he had procured a promise from me that I would send him . . . two sheets as probationary matter." "Mr. Davies' promise in addition to Blackwood's, that there should be inserted in the Magazine a Code or Canon of Principles, literary and moral, drawn up by me, and from the spirit of which the Conductors would pledge themselves not to deviate," also persuaded Coleridge to contribute to Blackwood's Magazine.
