COLERIDGE TALKS IN SLEEP

Epitaph Composed in Dream by Famous Poet Shown at Widener

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Claimed to have been composed in his sleep, a little known self-epitaph of Samuel Taylor Coleridge is now on exhibit at Widener Library in a display of manuscripts and marginal notes of this author.

Other items featured in the exhibit are a copy of "Mont Blanc in the Vale of Chamouny" in the poets own handwriting, and Coleridge's own copy of the "Ancient Mariner," with marginal notes written by him.

Various of Coleridge's letters and the copy of Schiller's "Wallenstein" which he used for his English translation are also shown.
