(BYRON, Lord); (COLERIDGE, Samuel Taylor); [SOUTHEY, Robert - editor] 
et. al. THE ANNUAL ANTHOLOGY in two volumes. Bristol: Biggs and Co., 
1799 & 1800. First Edition. Two volumes (4" x 6-1/2") bound in recent 
half brown morocco with matching corners retaining the original marbled 
boards, all edges marbled. Leaf B8 (pages 31-32) lacking in first 
volume, as usual; C3 in second volume in uncancelled state, with word 
"wicked" present on page 37, line 9. [Tinker 1953; Wise, Coleridge, 15]. 
Contributions by Samuel T. Coleridge (27 poems, some previously 
unpublished), Poet Laureate Robert Southey, Charles Lamb, Robert Lovell, 
Humphry Davy, Amelia Opie, and others. Pages 31-32 contained Southey's 
"War Poem," but were canceled in all but two known copies as the poem 
was considered unpatriotic. A third volume was advertised but never 
published. A remarkable and important collection of early Romantic 
poetry, here in unusually nice condition. Near Fine, handsomely bound.
