July 6, 2023I know ’tis but a Dream, yet feel more anguish (fragment)
I know ’tis but a Dream, yet feel more anguish
Than if ’twere Truth. It has been often so:
Must I die under it? Is no one near?
Will no one hear these stifled groans and wake me?
Samuel Taylor Coleridge

He was a leading figure in the Romantic movement and his works, including "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" and "Kubla Khan," continue to be celebrated for their lyrical beauty and imaginative power.
