Lute Song?

I can find nothing that mentions "Lute Song" in connection with "Love alone will stay" in Elgar literature other than in Michael Kennedy's "Portrait of Elgar", which as follows:

Page 311: Index, Solo Songs: "LOVE ALONE WILL STAY (LUTE SONG) 47, 71, 283".

Page 47: passing reference to 'Love Alone will Stay'.

Page 71: About Sea Pictures: "One of then, No. 2, 'In Haven' to words by Alice Elgar, had been written as early as 30 May 1897, when it was called 'Love Alone will Stay' and had been published as 'Lute Song' in The Dome in January 1898." [No, it wasn't]

Page 283: Chrononogical List of Works at the back of his book: "1897 Choral and vocal: Song, Love Alone Will Stay (Lute Song) (C. A. Elgar), for voice and pianoforte. Written 30 May 1897. Publisher: The Dome, 1898. Revised, orchestrated, and corporated into Sea Pictures, op. 37, No. 2, 1899 as In Haven (Capri).

I have The Dome published New Year's Day mdcccxcviii with me here: It is in the Inventory and on page 90 as 'Love Alone will Stay'. 'Lute Song' is not mentioned. Therefore I removed reference to "Lute Song" from the pages "Love alone will stay" and "In Haven (Capri)". P0mbal (talk) 15:06, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have noted that the words to another song of Elgar's, "Queen Mary's Song" are from Tennyson's Lute Song. P0mbal (talk) 15:27, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
