Leigh Hunt, the poet and essayist, witnessed the event and wrote, "He recited his 'Kubla Khan' one morning to Lord Byron, in his Lordship's house in Piccadilly, when I happened to be in another room.
Li Hant, pesnik i esejista, je bio svedok ovom događaju i napisao je, „Recitovao je svog ,Kublaj Kana’ Lordu Bajronu jednog jutra, u lordovoj kući u Pikadiliju, dok sam se ja zatekao u susednoj sobi.
