romancer

The old-time romancer brought his young people through all sorts of misadventures.

In all this state of things is great loss to the romancer, and not a little disadvantage to bold and adventurous spirits.

They had learned his gift as a romancer, and with this audience he might be as extravagant as he liked.

The great romancer is to tell the world the history of his own eventful life, and his extraordinary literary career.

For the romancer not only pleases himself with fictitious glories: he also terrifies himself with imaginary dangers.
