Like mostof the other poems in this volume, it is a product of the great year atStowey. He himself told a friend in later years: "I had the whole of thetwo cantos in my mind before I began it, " adding very truly, "certainlythe first canto is more perfect, has more of the true wild weird spiritthan the last. " Down to the close of his life he dreamed of finishing this work. Heamused his listeners at Highgate with a continuation of the plot; andin 1833 he declared that if he "were perfectly free... from vexation andwere in the _ad libitum_ hearing of fine music" he could yet finish"Christabel, " "for I have, as I always had, the whole plan entire frombeginning to end in my mind; but I fear I could not carry on with equalsuccess the execution of the idea. " Wordsworth had a differentrecollection. He told Coleridge's nephew in 1836 that he did not thinkColeridge "had ever conceived, in his own mind, any definite plan forit; that the poem had been composed while they were in habits of dailyintercourse, and almost in his presence, and when there was the mostunreserved intercourse between them as to all their literary projectsand productions, and he had never heard from him any plan for finishingit"; and added, what is fully borne out by a study of Coleridge's life:"schemes of this sort passed rapidly and vividly through his mind, andso impressed him, that he often fancied he had arranged things, whichreally, and upon trial, proved to be mere embryos.
