		THOMAS CHATTERTON (1752-1770), English poet, was born at Bristol on the loth of November 1752.
		Chatterton remained an inmate of Colston's hospital for upwards of six years, and the slight advantages gained from this scanty education are traceable to the friendly sympathy of Phillips, himself a writer of verse, who encouraged his pupils to write.
		Chatterton, conceiving the idea of finding sympathy and aid at the hand of some modern Canynge, bethought him of Horace Walpole, who not only indulged in a medieval renaissance of his own, but was the reputed author of a spurious antique in the Castle of Otranto.

	Thomas Chatterton - Collection Introduction
		In 1880 DGR became preoccupied with the late eighteenth-century poet-prodigy Thomas Chatterton (1752-1770), who committed suicide in London at age 17.
		I reflected that my meaning in the line âEven to that unknown shrine else deifiedâ was not that it would have been deified if known, but would have been so except for the interruption of his work by the death he chose.
		Although DGR originally wrote this sonnet to accompany Watts-Dunton's edition of Chatterton, (see Allen, Dear Mr Rossetti, 105), it seems clear that by July 1880, when he sent it to Christina and his mother, the sonnet was not going to be published in that way.
