In his poems, Coleridge endeavoured to employ to give credibility to the miraculous The Prelude , an autobiographical poem is the spiritual record of his mind, honestly recording its own intimate experiences, and endowed with a rare capacity for making the record intelligible.

It was composed in bland verse and had an epical scale.
