    Coleridge makes a distinction between fancy and imagination by saying that the fanciful poets deal with the finite world whereas the imaginative poets deal with the infinite. it is through the power of esemplastic power of imagination that they transcend the world of the finite and reach the infinite. the fanciful poets just imitate what is there in this world and cannot produce the ideal in their poems .
