Charles Lloyd (poet)

Coleridge introduced him to Charles Lamb, and the two supplied introductory and concluding verses to his next volume of poetry.

A new edition of Coleridge's poetry included poems by Lamb and Lloyd, and referred to the friendship of the authors.

[3] From 1813 to 1815 he translated nineteen tragedies of Vittorio Alfieri into blank verse[4] (revised and augmented to twenty-two in 1876 by Edgar Alfred Bowring).

In 1818 he escaped and turned up at De Quincey's cottage, claiming to be the devil, but managed to reason himself out of that conviction.

A flurry of literary activity followed with the publication of Nugae Canorae (1819), Desultory Thoughts in London, Titus and Gisippus, and Other Poems (1821), and Poetical Essays on the Character of Pope (1822).
