Songs and Verses

[The Perky Ent]

Well, the title explains it all, but for those of you who don't get it: The way the game works is, someone will post a line from a song or verse. It can be from anywhere. Then, people answer with who says it, when it's said, and if it's a song of verse. The person who answers correctly gets to post the next one? It's pretty simple, so let's get started! The first one is The white lilies sway,

Have at it!

Well, there is the "Who Sang It? (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?t=4329)" thread at the bottom of this page. But oh well.

That's from song of Lebennin, I think.

I realized there's a who sang it, but this requires more info about the question, and it can be either a song or a verse. Anyways, you've got the right song, but who said it and where?

[Beren87]

Point taken.

Hm.. Legolas sang it, in the Houses of Healing. [I had to break out the book to remember where! Blast you! =P]

[The Perky Ent]

Yes! Now you see the challenge! Right, your go!

Hmm.. what can I dig up? ;)

We wandered shyly hand in hand/ or rollicked in the fairy sand

This is more of a historic question [in regards to the Legendarium], than anything else. Tell me what the two lines are from and what version of the source it is. Then, tell me why the final version never found a place in the mythology.

Have fun.
