The Crewe Manuscript, handwritten by Coleridge himself some time before the poem was published in 1816

"And all who heard should see them there,

And all should cry, Beware! Beware!

His flashing eyes, his floating hair!

Weave a circle round him thrice,

And close your eyes with holy dread,

For he on honey-dew hath fed,

And drunk the milk of Paradise.”

Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Kubla Khan
