Frodo up in a tree
  		    The road goes ever on and on
    Down from the door where it began.
    Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
    Pursuing it with eager feet,
    Until it joins some larger way
    Where many paths and errands meet.
    And whither then? I cannot say.

scarcely aware of the existence of hobbits,
for which I am very thankful...
