This is the first draft of the Revolt of Islam. “ In this poem he had carried the expression of his opinions, moral, political and theological, beyond the bounds of discretion. The terror which in those days of persecution of the press, the perusal of the book inspired in Mr. Ollier, the publisher, induced him to solicit the alteration of many passages which he had marked. Shelley was for some time inflexible; but Mr. Ollier’s refusal to publish the poem as it was, backed by the advice of all his friends, induced him to submit to the required changes. Many leaves were can¬ celled, and it was finally published as ‘ The Revolt of Islam.’ Of ‘ Laon and Gythna ’ only three copies had gone forth. One of these had found its way to the Quarterly Review, and the opportunity was readily seized of pouring out on it one of the most malignant effusions of the odium theologicum that ever appeared even in those days, and in that periodical.”—Fraser's Magazine, vol. lxi., p. 100. 924 - The Revolt of Islam: a Poem, in Twelve Cantos.
