Here's my guess:

Dell = a green land
A messed up signal = a code?
There was a code machine called the Enigma, and Elgar wrote the Enigma Variations. There is no apparent link between the machine and the composer but one of the Variations was called Nimrod.

So could the exiled lady be Nimrodel?

Even if right it still leaves me wondering about "in papers"...
