Excerpt from Completion of Coleridge's Christabel
To venture a Completion of the Christabel of Coleridge is, in truth, a bold undertaking. And yet, it was but love for the beginning of it, for its medieval atmosphere of beauty and horror, for the poignantly vague suggestiveness of its simplicity, for the primitive dread of the Unknown in its elusive melody, that, rather than any boldness, has called it forth.
