All of those poets are good except for the females (you could have selected good female ones though e.g. Marianne Moore, H.D.)

Blake is meme-shit
Coleridge wrote some of the best verses of the century

Keats and Shelley would be nothing without Coleridge and Wordsworth.
If you weren't a pleb you would know this.

Keats actually came to dislike Wordsworth in his later years, probably because by the time he met him Wordsworth was a washed-up old man

It was mainly because by the time Keats started writing Wordsworth had totally and utterly sold out his youthful Jacobinism, supporting the Tory party, joining the Anglican Church and becoming a fucking tax official for the Earl of Lonsdale, whereas Keats, Shelley and Byron were radical liberals and atheists.
