Select Works Of The British Poets From Chaucer To Jonson With Biographical Sketches
By Robert Southey
Printed for Longman, Rees, Orme, Brown and Green: London 1831

" Robert Southey (1774 - 1843) was an English poet of the Romantic school, and Poet Laureate from 1813 until his death. Like the other Lake Poets, William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Southey began as a radical but became steadily more conservative as he gained respect for Britain and its institutions. Other romantics such as Byron accused him of siding with the establishment for money and status. He is remembered especially for the poem "After Blenheim" and the original version of "Goldilocks and the Three Bears"."
