QUIZ: Is This an Ed Sheeran Lyric or a Line of Poetry from the Romantic Era?

Romanticism often involved feeling as many emotions as possible in the middle of a thunderstorm and then writing poems about it. Famous Romantic poets include John Keats (best known for writing odes to nightingales and Grecian urns), Lord Byron (best known for being a disaster), Charlotte Smith (best known for reviving the English sonnet), and Álvares de Azevedo (best known for being the patron saint of Brazilian goths).
