Lyrical Ballads (1798) is a landmark collection of poems that marks the beginning of the English Romantic Movement in literature. Co-written by friends William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, the collection broke away from traditional poetic form. Of the twenty-three poems, Wordsworth penned works such as Lines written a few miles above Tintern Abbey and The Idiot Boy that use colloquial speech and take the everyday as their theme. The collection also includes Coleridge s greatest poem The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere , a supernatural tale of a sailor s voyage.
