Quote-along!

[Lady Ashley]

:o Wow. Geez. I really need to pick up some of the HoME books...what is that poem about, Elfy? I've never heard of "Aryador". (or is that Eriador in early form? Or an early form of Aman? It talks about gods in Aryador...)

"Farewell we call to the hearth and hall!
Though wind may blow and rain may fall,
We must away ere break of day
Far over wood and mountain tall."

[Elfdaughter]

It's a song about Nimrodel, who travelled into the southern lands of Middle-earth and became lost in the White Mountains.

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still around the corner we may meet
A sudden standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still around the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run,
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn and nut and sloe
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We'll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And to bed! And then to bed!

But i must go at once ,Its the only way ."

Of course it is,' answered sam 'But not alone Iam coming with too, or neither of us ist't going .
I'LL knock holes in the boats first

Frodo actually laugh " leave one "

"A day may come, when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of Fellowship, but it is not this day! An hour of wolves and shattered shileds when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you, stand, Men of the West!"

[Ivyetta]

"... FRODO! FRODO!!..."

( :mecry: :king: )

[Samwise2]

Out of doubt, out of dark, to the day's rising
he rode singing in the sun, sword unsheathing
Hope he rekindled, and in hope ended
over death , over dread, over doom lifed
out of loss, out of life, unto long glory.

But merry stood at the foot of the green mound , and wept, and when the song was ended he arose and cried :
Theoden King , Theoden King ! fare well! As a father you where to me , for a little while . Farewell .



i love that speech ElfDaughter it make chills run through me everytime i hear it

[Elfdaughter]

I know!!!!

Theoden: "My eyes darken."
Éowyn: "No...No, I am going to save you."
Théoden: "You already did. Éowyn, my body is broken. You have to let me go..."
[Éowyn parts her lips but says nothing. She continues to stroke her uncle's hair as he speaks.]
Théoden: "I go to my fathers in whose mighty company I shall not now feel ashamed."
[They look at each other and Théoden finally says his last words.]
Théoden: "Éowyn...!"

[Ivyetta]

"... I know your face..."

[Samwise2]

Then one of the knight's took the banner from the hand of Guthlaf the banner-bearer who lay dead and he lifted it up.
Slowly Theoden opened his eyes, seeing the banner he made a sign that should be givien to Eomer .
Hail, the king of the mark he said "Ride now to victory ! Bid Eowyn farewell ! And so he died , and knew not that Eowyn lay near him
And those who stood by wept, crying Theoden King! Theoden King!
But Eomer said to them :
Mourn not overmuch! Mighty was fallen,
meet was his ending . When his mound is raised,
women then shall weep. War now calls to us
Yet he himself weptas he spoke .

"What other duty would you have me do my lord?"

[Pil]

'My Lord Aragorn, where is he?'

[Ice Dragoness]

"Where is she? The woman who gave you that jewel"

[Samwise2]

"My lord"

She is sailing to the undying lands with all that is left of her kin

[Evenstar]

It was a dream, nothing more.

'You are not bound to loss and silence.
For you are not bound to the circles of this world.
All things must pass away,
All life is doomed to fade…

Sorrowing you must go, [and yet you are not without hope].'

[Lady Ashley]

(is that from a song?)

"...you are not bound to his fate."

[Elfdaughter]

Yip, it's from breath of Life.

Still round a corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate;
And though I oft have passed them by,
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.

[Samwise2]

Upon the heath the fire is red
Beneath the roof there is a bed
But not yet weary are our feet
Still around the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
let them pass! let them pass!
hill and water under the sky
pass them by ! pass them by !

Still round a corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate
And though we pass them by today
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the moon or to the sun
Apple, thorn and nuts and sloe
Let them go! let them go !
Sand and stone and pool and dell
Fare you well! Fare you well !

Home is behind you , the world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight
Thn world behind and home ahead
We'll wander back home ahead
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade
Away will fade Away will fade
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread ,
And to bed! And to bed !

Chip the glasses and crack the plate!
Blunt the knives and bend the forks !
Thats what Bilbo Baggins hates
Smash the bottles and burn the corks !

Cut the cloth and tread on the fat !
Pour the milk on the pantry floor !
Leave the bones on the bedroom mat !
Splash the wine on every door !

Dump the crocks in a boiling bowl:
Pound them up with a with a thumping pole:
And when youre finished, if any are whole ,
Send them down the hall to roll !

That's what Bilbo Baggins hate's !
So, carefully ! carefully with the plates!

Renewed shall be the blade that was broken ,
The crownless again shall be king .

And the halfing forth shall stand

Three rings for the Elven -kings under the sky,
seven for the Dwarf -lords in their halls of stone ,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die ,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

ONE RING TO FIND THEM
ONE RING TO BRING THEM ALL
AND IN THE DARKNESS BIND THEM

Curse of the Gost from Barrow-downs

Cold be hand and heart and bone,
and cold be sleep under stone:
never more to wake on stony bed,
never, till the Sun fails and the Moon is dead.
In the black wind the stars shall die,
and still on gold here let them lie,
till the dark lord lifts his hand
over dead sea and withered land.

[Lady Ashley]

"Mist and shadow
Cloud and shade
All shall fade
All shall...fade."

Treebeard's song

In the willow-meads of Tasarinan I wolk in the spring
Ah the sight and the smell of the springs in Nan-Tasarion!
And i said that was good
I wandered in Summer in the elm-woods of
Ossiriand
Ah! the light and the music in the summer by the
Seven Sea of Ossir!
And i thought that was best
To the beeches of Neldoreth I came in the Autumn
Ah! the gold and the red and the sighting of leaves in the Autumn in Taur-na-neldor!
It was more than mt desire
To the pine-trees upon the highland of Dorthonion I
climb in the winter
Ah! the wind and the whiteness and the black
branchesof Winter upon Orod-na -Thon!
My Voice went up and sang in the sky
And now all those lie under the wave ,
And i walk in Ambarona,in Tauremorna, in
Aldalome
In my own land, country of Fangorn,
Where the roots are long,
And the years lie thicker then the leaves
In Tauremornalome.

[Elfdaughter]

The world was young, the mountains green,
No stain yet on the Moon was seen,
Np words were laid on stream or stone
When Durin woke and walked alone.
He named the nameless hills and dells;
He drank from yet untasted wells;
He stooped and looked in Mirrormere,
And saw a crown of stars appear,
As gems upon a silver thread,
Above the shadow of his head.
The world was fair, the mountains tall,
In Elder Days before the fall
Of mighty kings in Nargothrond
And Gondolin, who now beyond
The Western Sea have passed away:
The world was fair in Durin's Day.

A king he was on carven throne
In many-pillared halls of stone
With golden roof and silver floor,
And runes of power upon the door.
The light of sun and star and moon
In shining lamps of crystal hewn
Undimmed by cloud or shade of night
There shone for ever fair and bright.

There hammer on the anvil smote,
There chisel clove, and graver wrote;
There forged was blade, and bound was hilt;
The delver mined, the mason built.
There beryl, pearl, and opal pale,
And metal wrought like fishes' mail,
Buckler and corslet, axe and sword,
And shining spears were laid in hoard.

Unwearied then were Durin's folk;
Beneath the mountains music woke:
The harpers harped, the minstrels sang,
And at the gates the trumpets rang.

The world is grey, the mountains old
The forge's fire is ashen-cold;
No harp is wrung, no hammer falls;
The darkness dwells in Durin's halls;
The shadow lies upon his tomb
In Moria, in Khazad-dum.
But still the sunken stars appear
In dark and windless Mirrormere;
There lies his crown in water deep,
Till Durin wakes again from sleep.

[Ice Dragoness]

"And everything that was green and good in this world will be gone....there won't be a Shire Pippin"

"Name any tree that you love and it will stand till it dies."

(That would be a quote by Tar-Aldarion of Numenor from "Unfinished Tales".)

[Eowyn of Ithilien]

"Most of these trees were my friends, whom I knew from nut and acorn."

^^ Not sure if I got the quote exactly right, but almost. :)

[Samwise2]

Cold be hand and heart and bone,
and cold be sleep under stone:
never more to wake on stony bed,
never , till the sun fails and the moon is dead.
In the black wind the stars shall die ,
and still on gold here let them lie,
till the dark lord lifts his hand
over dead sea and withered lands .

[Lady Ashley]

"Will you then pass over Sea?"

~ Celeborn to Galadriel in "Unfinished Tales"

[Samwise2]

To the sea , to the sea ! The white gulls are crying ,
The wind is blowing and the white foam is flying .
West, west away, the round sun is falling .
Grey ship, grey ship, do you hear them calling,
The voices of my people that have gone before me?
I will leave, i will leave the woods that bore me ,
For our days are ending and our years failing.
I will pass the wide water lonely sailing.
Long are the waves on the last shore falling,
Sweet are the voices in the lost isle calling,
In Eressea,in Elvenhome that no man can discover,
Where the leaves fall not: land of my people for ever!

If I choose to send thee, Tuor son of Huor, then believe not that thy one sword is not worth the sending. For the valour of the Edain the Elves shall ever remember as the ages lengthen, marvelling that they gave life so freely of which they had on earth so little. But it is not for thy valour only that I send thee, but to bring into the world a hope beyond thy sight, and a light that shall pierce the darkness.

In Dwimordene, in Lórien
Seldom have walked the feet of Men,
Few mortal eyes have seen the light
That lies there ever, long and bright.
Galadriel! Galadriel!
Clear is the water of your well;
White is the stasr in your white hand;
Unmarred, unstained is leaf and land
In Dwimordene, in Lórien
More fair than thoughts of Mortal Men.

They love their horses next to their kin. And not without reason, for the horses of the Riddermark come from the fields of the North, far from the Shadow, and their race, as that of their masters, is descended from the free days of old.

Over the land there lies long shadows ,
westward reaching wings of darkness
The tower trembles ; to the tomb of kings
doom approaches , the dead awaken
for the hour is come for the oathbreakers
at the stone of Erech they shall stand again
and hear there a horn in the hills ringing
Whose shall the horm be ? Who shall call them
from the grey twilight , the forgotten people ?
The heir of him to whom the oath they swore,
From the north shall he come , need shall drive him
he shall pass the door to the path of the dead

[Lady Ashley]

"The way is shut...it was made by those that are dead, and the Dead keep it."

By the command of Morgoth the Orcs with great labour gathered the bodies of all those who had fallen in the great battle, and all their harness and weapons, and piled them in a great mound in the midst of Anfauglith; and it was like a hill that could be seen from afar. Haudh-en-Ndengin, the Elves named it, the Hill of the Slain, and Haudh-en-Nirnaeth, the Hill of Tears. But grass came there and grew again long and green upon that hill, alone in all the desert that Morgoth made; and no creature of Morgoth trod thereafter upon the earth beneath which the swords of the Eldar and the Edain crumbled into rust.

[Samwise2]

Get out oy old Wight ! Vanish in the sunlight !
Shrivel like the clod mist , like the winds go waiting ,
Out into the barren lands far beyond the mountains !
Come never here again ! Leave your barrow empty !
Lost and forgotten be, darker then the darkness ,
Where gates stand for ever shut , till the world is mended

"Old Tom Bombadil was a merry fellow;
bright blue his jacket was and his boots were yellow,
green were his girdle and his breeches all of leather;
he wore in his tall hat a swan-wing feather."

[Elfdaughter]

Now let the song begin! Let us sing together
Of sun, stars, moon and mist, rain and cloudy weather,
Light on the budding leaf, dew on the feather,
Wind on the open hill, bells on the heather,
Reeds by the shady pool, lilies on the water:
Old Tom Bombadil and the River-daughter!

Old Tom Bombadil is a merry fellow;
Bright blue his jacket is, and his boots are yellow.
green were his girdle and his breeches all of leather;
he wore in his tall hat a swan-wing feather.
He lived up under Hill, where the Withywindle
ran from a grassy well down into the dingle.

Hey! Come merry dol! derry dol! My darling!
Light goes the weather-wind and the feathered starling.
Down along under Hill, shining in the sunlight,
Waiting on the doorstep for the cold starlight,
There my pretty lady is, River-woman's daughter,
Slender as the willow-wand, clearer than the water.
Old Tom Bombadil water-lilies bringing
Comes hopping home again. Can you hear him singing?

Hey! Come merry dol! derry dol! and merry-o,
Goldberry, Goldberry, merry yellow berry-o!
Poor old Willow-man, you tuck your roots away!
Tom's in a hurry now. Evening will follow day.
Tom's going home home again water-lilies bringing.
Hey! come derry dol! Can you hear me singing?

Hop along, my little friends, up the Withywindle!
Tom's going on ahead candles for to kindle.
Down west sinks the Sun: soon you will be groping.
When the night-shadows fall, then the door will open,
Out of the window-panes light will twinkle yellow.
Fear no alder black! Heed no hoary willow!
Fear neither root nor bough! Tom goes on before you.
Hey now! merry dol! We'll be waiting for you!

[Samwise2]

Where is the horse and the rider ? Wheers is the horn that was blowing ?
Where is the helm and the hauberk, and the bright hair flowing?
Where is the hand on the harpstrings , and the red fire glowing?
Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing ?
They have passed like rain on the mountain , like a wind in the meadow ;
The days have gone down in the west behind the hills into shadow,
Whos shall gather the smoke of the dead wood burning ,
Or the flowing years from sea returning ?

[Periantari Andruil]

wow..everyone is posting long passages in here...
my quote:

"Then i stood still, forgetting war in Middle-earth; for their wailing voices spoke to me of the sea. The Sea! Alas! I have not yet beheld it. But deep in the hearts of all my kindred lies the sea-longing, which it is perilous to stir. Alas! for the gulls. No peace shall I have again under beech or under elm."
:legolas:

beautiful quote by the elf =)

[Lady Ashley]

Legolas Greanleaf, long under tree
In joy thou hast lived. Beware of the Sea!
If thou hearest the cry of the gull the on shore,
Thy heart shall then rest in the forest no more.

[Mithril]

'Almost felt you liked the Forest! That's good! That's uncommonly kind of you', said a strange voice. 'Turn round and let me have a look at your faces. I almost feel that I dislike you both, but do not let us be hasty. Turn round!'

[Lady Ashley]

"Hrum, now, well, I am an Ent, or that's what they call me. Yes, Ent is the word. The Ent, I am, as you might say, in your manner of speaking. Fangorn is my name according to some, Treebeard others make it. Treebeard will do."

[Elfdaughter]

We come, we come with roll of drum: ta-runda runda runda rom!
We come, we come with horn and drum: ta-runa runa runa rom!
To Isengard! Though Isengard be ringed and barred with doors of stone;
Though Isengard be strong and hard, as cold as stone and bare as bone,
We go, we go, we go to war, to hew the stone and break the door;
For bole and bough are burning now, the furnace roars - we go to war!
To land of gloom with tramp of doom, with roll of drum, we come, we come;
To Isengard with doom we come!
With doom we come, with doom we come!

I LOVE this one!!

[Mithril]

"I must carry this burden to the end. It can't be altered. You can't come between me and this doom."

[Elfdaughter]

Have you heard nothing Lord Elrond has said? The ring MUST be destroyed!

[Mithril]

'I have come. But I do not choose now to do what I came to do. I will not do this deed. The Ring is mine!'

[Elfdaughter]

Mi naurath Orodruin,

(Into the fires of Orodruin,
The One must be cast.
This [is] the price that must be paid.
Only thus its power will be undone,
Only thus a great evil unmade.
There is no other choice,
There is no other way,
One of you must take it,
One of you must pay.)

[Mithril]

Are we the only ones playing here? :grin: O.K, here's my next quote-
'And then at last over the miles between there came a rumble, rising to a deafening crash and roar; the earth shook, the plain heaved and cracked, and Orodruin reeled. Fire belched from its riven summit. The skies burst into thunder seared by lightning. Down like lashing whips fell a torrent of black rain. And into the heart of the storm, with a cry that pierced all other sounds, tearing the clouds asunder, the Nazgul came, shooting like flaming bolts, as caught in the ruin of hill and sky they crackled, withered, and went out.':ring:

For he was a Nazgul, one of the Nine, who ride now upon winged steeds. Soon their terror will overshadow the last armies of our friends, cutting off the sun.'
Not very good, but it's all I could think of! lol
Where did that quote come from- I've never seen it before

[Elfdaughter]

:blush: OK, that's cheating, it's from the lyrics of FOTR.....

No other blade, not though mightier hands had wielded it, would have dealt that foe a wound so bitter, cleaving the undead flesh, breaking the spell that knit his unseen sinews to his will.

[Lady Ashley]

"CRAP!", shouted the Witch-king, "Beat by a---" *poof*

KIDDING! lol I can imagine that's the WiKi's reaction, lol.

"No living man am I! You look upon a woman! Eowyn am I, Eomund's daughter! You stand between me and my lord and kin! Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him!":fight:

(we need an Eowyn smiley!)

[Mithril]

'At its head there rode a tall and evil shape, mounted upon a black horse, if horse it was; for it was huge and hideous, and it's face was a frightful mask, more like a skull than a living head, and in the sockets of its eyes and nostrils there burned a flame. The rider was robed all in black, and black was his lofty helm, yet this was no Ringwraith but a living man.'

[Elfdaughter]

The Lieutenant of the Tower of Barad-dur he was, and his name is remembered in no tale; for he himself had forgetten it, and he said: 'I am the Mouth of Sauron.' But it is told that he was a renegade, who came of the race of those that are named the Black Numenoreans; for they established their dwellings in Middle Earth during the years of Sauron's domination, and they worshipped him, being enamoured of evil knowledge. And he entered the service of the dark tower when it first rose again, and because of his cunning he grew ever higher in the lord's favour; and he learned great soucery, and knew much of the mind of Sauron; and was more cruel than any orc.

[Lady Ashley]

"'Is there anyone in this rout with authority to treat with me?' he asked. 'Or indeed with wit to understand me? Not though at least!' he mocked, turning to Aragorn with scorn. 'It needs more to make a king than a piece of elvish glass, or a rabble such as this. Why any brigand of the hills can show as good a following!'"

[Eomund]

"I cant say it already" answered Aragorn.

[Lady Ashley]

er...ok...

"What say you? What say you??" ~ Aragorn, talking to the Dead

[Periantari Andruil]

"Say not that he has fallen!" mecry :(

[Mithril]

'He seemed to be trying to twist round, so as to go legs first, when suddenly with a thin whistling shriek he fell. As he did so, he curled his arms and legs up round him, like a spider whose decending thread is snapped.'

[Pil]

'i feel.....thin.....' :ring:

[Eomund]

'no need to worry'

[Aravail]

are you going to leave me?
no merry im going to look after you.
mecry

[Pil]

'dont you leave him samwise gamgee!!!!!!!' :sam: mecry :read:

[Periantari Andruil]

"His will was set and only death could break it."
:sam: :loveyou:

[Elenwë]

"I made a promise 'don't you lose him Samwise Gamgee' and I don't mean to"

[Bramblerose Bunce]

"Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens"

[Samwise2]

Soon they will be engullfed, a rain of hot ash was falling
To keep fear away until the last ,his eyes still strayed north into the eye of the wind , to where the sky far offf was clear , as the cold blast , raising to a gale, drove back the darknessand the ruin of the clouds

[Elfdaughter]

The Eagles!! The Eagles have come!

[Mithril]

'So it was that when summer waned, there came a night of moon, and Gwaihir the Windlord, swiftest of the Great Eagles, came unlooked for to Orthanc; and he found me standing on the pinnacle.'

[Samwise2]

'The eagle ! said Legolas. ' I have seen an eagle high and far off :the last time three days ago , above Emyn Muil.'

[Elfdaughter]

Thrice he cried. Thrice the great ram boomed. And suddenly upon the last stroke the Gate of Gondor broke. As if stricken by some blasting spell it burst asunder; there was a flash of searing lightning, and the doors tumbled in riven fragments to the ground.

In rode the Lord of the Nazgûl. A great black shape against the fires beyond, he loomed up, grown to a vast menace of despair. In rode the Lord of the Nazgûl, under the arch that no enemy ever yet had passed, and all fled before his face. All save one. There waiting silent and still in the space before the Gate, sat Gandalf upon Shadowfax, Shadowfax who alone among the free horses of the earth endured the terror, unmoving, steadfast as a graven image in Rath Dinen.

[Periantari Andruil]

"You cannot enter here," said Gandalf, and the huge shadow halted. "Go back to the abyss prepared for you! Go back! Fall into the nothingness that awaits you and your Master. Go!" :gandalf:

(Extended scene i'm sure hoping) ;)

[Samwise2]

'Old fool! he said ' Old fool ! This is my hour , Do you not know Death when you see it ? Die now and curse in vain!' And with that he lifted high his sword and flames ran down the blade.

[Pil]

'Curse you! And all the halflings!' :frodo:

[Elfdaughter]

The Hobbits were surprised to see knights in bright mail and tall guards in silver and black standing there, who greeted them with honour and bowed before them. And then one blew a long trumpet, ...swords were unsheathed, and spears were shaken, and horns and trumpets sang, and men cried with many voices and many tongues.

"Long Live the Halflings! Praise them with great praise!
Cuio i Pheriain anann! Aglar'ni Pheriannath!
Praise them with great praise. Frodo and Samwise!
Daur a Berhael, Conin en Annun! Eglerio!
Praise them!
Eglerio!
A laita te, laita te! Anave laituvalmet!
Praise them!
Cormacolindor, a laitatarienna!
Praise them! The Ring-bearers, praise them with great praise!"

[Mithril]

'No Sam. Not yet anyway, not further than the Havens. Though you too were a Ring-bearer, if only for a little while.'

[Elenwë]

'Dear Sam, you can't alays be torn in two, you have to be one and whole for a long time, you have so much to enjoy...'

[Pil]

'They are one.....'

[Lady Ashley]

"One Ring to rule them all..."

[Elenwë]

"One Ring to find them..."

[Pil]

'They will never stop hunting you...' :o

[Lady Ashley]

"I have some skill as a hunter at need."

(I think that's it...I don't have FOTR handy.)

[Elfdaughter]

Ú i vethed nâ i onnad.

[Es]teliach nad, estelio han.

'Not the end [it] is the beginning.
Now it-is-necessary [that] don't-fall
If you don't-trust some-thing.'

'Not the end [it] is the beginning.'

'[It] is necessary don't that.'

'Trust this, trust this, trust
trust this, trust love.'

You trust some-thing, trust this.'

[Periantari Andruil]

"I wish I could've seen him one last time..."

[Lady Ashley]

"Oh, Beast, don't say that. You'll be just fine..."

Oops. Wrong movie. *snicker*

"The Sea calls us home."

[Elfdaughter]

*ED :trout:s LA* :rolleyes:

"Day is ended, dim my eyes,
A journey long before me lies.
Farewell friends, I hear the call,
The ship's beside the stony wall.
Foam is white and waves are grey;
beyond the sunset leads my way.
Foam is salt, the wind is free;
I hear the rising of the Sea.

Farewell, friends! The sails are set,
the wind is east, the moorings fret.
Shadows long before me lie,
beneath the ever-bending sky,
but islands lie behind the Sun
that I shall raise ere all is done;
lands there are to west of West,
where night is quiet and sleep is rest.

Guided by the Lonely Star,
beyond the utmost harbour-bar,
I'll find the heavens fair and free,
and beaches of the Starlit Sea.
Ship, my ship! I seek the West,
and fields and mountains ever blest.
Farewell to Middle-earth at last.
I see the Star above my mast!"

[Mithril]

There like jewels sunk in the deep shone glinting stars, though sunlight was in the sky above.

[Lady Ashley]

There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.

:cry: so beautiful.

[Elfdaughter]

"And you, Ringbearer - I come to you last, you who are not last in my thoughts. For you, I have prepared this; The light of Earendil, our most beloved star. May it be a light for you in dark places, when all other lights go out. Remember Galadriel, and her mirror."

(That was off the top of my head, so if it's wrong, I apologise...I know all the poems off by heart and the majority of quotes, but sometimes one or two slip by me....lol)

[Mithril]

Aiya Earendil Elenion Ancalima!

I didn't look at the book either, so that spelling may be wrong! lol

[Elfdaughter]

lol... no, I think it's right...

OK, another one off the top of my head:

A Elbereth, Gilthoniel!
Silviren penna miriel,
O Menel aglar elennath,
Gilthoniel! A Elbereth!

[Mithril]

I'll take a walk, I think, and look at the stars of Elbereth in the garden. Sleep well!

[Elfdaughter]

They are High Elves! They spoke the name of Elbereth!

[Mithril]

'Nay! Not Elves,' Said the fourth, the tallest, and as it appeared the chief among them. 'Elves do not walk in Ithilien in these days. And Elves are wondrous fair to look upon, or so 'tis said.'

[Lady Ashley]

"Meaning we're not."

(or something like that. No book handy.)

[Lady Melanie]

"When the enemy returned we our folk were driven from Ithilien, our fair domain east of the river"

[Mithril]

'If you will stay in this house in our care lady, and take your rest, then you shall walk in this garden in the sun as you will; and you shall look east, whither all our hopes have gone.'

[Lady Ashley]

"You have left the East wind to me, but I will say naught of it."

[Samwise2]

Sliver flows the streams from Celos to Erui
In the green fields of Lebennin!
Tall grows the grass there, In the wind of the sea
The white lilies sway,
And the golden bells are shaken of a mallos and alfirin
Im green fields of Lebennin,
In the wind of the sea!
