_An Essay on Marriage_. "No such essay by Wordsworth is at present known to exist. It would seem either that 'Marriage' is a misprint for some other word, or that Hazlitt was mistaken in the subject of the essay referred to by Coleridge. Hazlitt is probably recalling a conversation with Coleridge in Shrops.h.i.+re at the beginning of 1798 (cf. 'My First Acquaintance with Poets'), at which time _A Letter to the Bishop of Llandaff_ (1793) was the only notable prose work which Wordsworth had published." Waller-Glover.
