Coleridge continuously haunts De Quincey's pages, as a sort of battered Virgilian guide to the opium Inferno.Coleridge: Darker Reflections, 1804-1834

NO FLAG, NO ANTHEM
SEEING
Antonio Machado
Caminante, son tus huellas
el camino y nada más;
Caminante, no hay camino,
se hace camino al andar.
Al andar se hace el camino,
y al volver la vista atrás
se ve la senda que nunca
se ha de volver a pisar.
Caminante, no hay camino
sino estelas en la mar.
el camino y nada más;
Caminante, no hay camino,
se hace camino al andar.
Al andar se hace el camino,
y al volver la vista atrás
se ve la senda que nunca
se ha de volver a pisar.
Caminante, no hay camino
sino estelas en la mar.
Blues for Herb (Emily Remler)

What a sentence.
My late friend Rob Zseleczky admired Holmes for his Shelley biography.
His Coleridge volumes are quite good, though reading about Coleridge can be exasperating, between his messy personal life and his unfulfilled projects. Sometimes it seems a wonder that he finished anything at all.
