Is it true that Wordsworth used drugs?
I don't think that Wordsworth did drugs. However Coleridge certainly did. He used laudanum which is an alcoholic tincture of opium. Laudanum is also known as tincture of opium, opium tincture, or tinctura opii. There are several varieties of opium tinctures, including wine of opium (vinum opii or Sydenham's Laudanum), which contains sugar, white wine, cinnamon, and cloves; saffronized tincture of opium, also known as tinctura opii crocata, containing saffron; deodorized tincture of opium (discussed below); and camphorated tincture of opium (tinctura opii camphorata or paregoric), containing camphor.





Other poets who Wordsworth knew who used laudanum include Thomas de Quincey, who turned his addiction into literary success with the publication of 'Confessions of an English Opium Eater,' Percy Bysshe Shelley, used laudanum to dull the pain of chronic nephritis from which he suffered, and John Keats.





The story associated with drugs is Coleridge's "Kublai Khan." He claims to have been in a laudanum haze, having some of the hallucinations described in the poem. when there was a loud banging on his door. After answering the door he couldn't remember the rest of his vision.
