Letitia Elizabeth Landon war eine britische Dichterin und Romanschriftstellerin. Häufig schrieb die zu ihrer Zeit in Großbritannien wohlbekannte Autorin unter dem Pseudonym ihrer Initialen, L. E. L. Kurz nach ihrer im Juni 1838 zelebrierten Heirat mit George Maclean, dem Gouverneur von Cape Coast Castle, segelte sie mit diesem zu dem in Westafrika gelegenen britischen „Schutzgebiet“, starb dort aber wenige Monate später unter mysteriösen Umständen.

There are other, deeper, spells
In the lone and mystic wells —
Spells of strange wild augury
Few have had the heart to try.”

The London Literary Gazette, 1824

“Statues but known from shapes of the earth,
By being too lovely for mortal birth;
Paintings whose colours of life were caught
From the fairy tints in the rainbow wrought;
Music whose sighs had a spell like those
That float on the sea at the evening’s close
Language so silvery, that every word
Was like the lute’s awakening chord;”

Sown by the wind, nursed by the shower,
O'er which Love has breathed a power and spell
The truth of whispering hope to tell.”
