Andrew Lang

Romance is a poem by Andrew Lang, first published in The Century Magazine in May 1882. Notably, it is recognized for its connection to Edward Elgar's song 'My Love Dwelt in a Northern Land,' which initially used Lang's words before he granted permission for their use. This version includes the original third verse, which was omitted in later collections of Lang's poetry. The poem reflects themes of love and longing, showcasing Lang's lyrical style.
