柯勒律治在1800年为《伦敦晨报》报道了三次演讲。他的笔记和印刷报告与所有其他独立报告进行核对，并制定了一些简单的文本分析规则，以评估议会报告的真实性。稀少但更真实的速记或作者文本与通常的报纸文本之间的区别被展示出来。然而，人们发现，即使从报纸报道中，也可以恢复原话演讲者的少量但重要的突出表达。有了这里介绍的方法，这位历史学者不必对德布雷特、科贝特或汉萨德收藏的所有未经筛分的矿石不加区别地怀疑。至于柯勒律治，他的三份报告代表了三种程度的原创性。总的来说，作为一名记者，他比他的专业同事更忠诚，也更有创造力。
Coleridge reported three speeches in 1800 for the London Morning Post. His notes and printed reports are collated with all other independent reports, and some simple rules of textual analysis are formulated for evaluating the authenticity of parliamentary reports. A distinction between the scarce but more authentic shorthand or authorial texts and the usual newspaper texts is demonstrated. Yet it is found that a small but significant sprinkling of the salient expressions of the original speakers can be recovered even from newspaper reports. The historical scholar, armed with the method here presented, need not turn with indiscriminate suspicion from all the unsifted ore in the collections of Debrett, Cobbett, or Hansard. As for Coleridge, his three reports represent three degrees of originality. In general he was, as a reporter, simultaneously more faithful and more creative than his professional colleagues.
