The Devil's Walk: A Ballad was a major poetical work published as a broadside by Percy Bysshe Shelley in 1812.[1] The poem consisted of seven irregular ballad stanzas of 49 lines.[2] The poem was a satirical attack and criticism of the British government. Satan is depicted meeting with key members of the British government. [3] The poem was modeled on and meant as a continuation of "The Devil's Thoughts" of 1799 by Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey.[4] The work is important in Shelley's development and evolution of writings that castigate and criticize the British government in order to achieve political and economic reform.
