Poems on Various Subjects is Coleridge's first collection of poetry and, apart from the first part of The Fall of Robespierre, 1794 and several lectures issued as pamphlets, his first complete book. One of the sonnets included in the "Effusions" section was written by Robert Southey and the four poems by Charles Lamb are his first published works (although one was attributed to Coleridge in subsequent editions).
