By practice taught, I have learned patience, having much endured/ By tempest and in battle both. Come then This evil also! I am well prepared.</p>

Pippin to Merry after Grishnahk was slain by the Eored.

Either that - or Merry to Pippin at Fangorn, explaining he'd spent his time better at Rivendell and knew where they were.

Yeah, you can get away with it this time, since they're both wrong. Good tries though. Next!

No fooling you, HerenIstarion! Go ahead.

[HerenIstarion]

Not finished? Well, it's finished with, as far as you're concerned, at any rate

who to whom and what about?

[TheBlackRider]

Well I will take a chance. Is it Bilbo talking about the Red Book? Or Frodo or Sam talking about it? Or is it Gandalf talking to Frodo after the destroction? Or Gandalf to Sam at the Havens? I am just guessing here.....

[Belin]

Tricky, tricky! That's one of those nasty constable types to Niggle when they want his painting, no?

...ummm... perhaps I should have said, when they come to take Niggle?... but the point is, they separate him from it. Anywayy....


--Belin Ibaimendi

[HerenIstarion]

Well, sorry to be so late, I was preoccupied a bit lately. Yes, Belin, you got it

[Belin]

Ah, well, I know how that is.... yes, yes I do.

Let's see, can I find a sufficiently difficult quote? Likely not... how about.......


Tell the people to go indoors and mourn decently!

Who to whom, and why are they mourning?

--Belin Ibaimendi

[ May 01, 2002: Message edited by: Belin ]

[Legolas]

The King to his people in Farmer Giles of Ham; they were mourning the fall of the brave knights.

[merlilot]

hey hey hey!!!

Lets get back to LOTR, please! Merlilot hasn't read the other books! you are spoiling it!!!

And I like Pippin's signature. smilies/biggrin.gif he would say that, wouldn't he?

[Legolas]

You might want to stick to quote threads on specific books you've read, then.

[merlilot]

But this one isn't specified. It's not like I am forcing you to. Just a request. It has rather fallen into the minor works which not many of us have read, and has it's own thread.

And there is no need to be rude.

[Legolas]

What was rude about it?

I was just stating that if a thread has no designation, it's open to any book by Tolkien.

[Belin]

Legalos, since that's what they should be doing, I think that's close enough, although of course actually they aren't mourning at all, but cheering. Your turn.

--Belin Ibaimendi

[Legolas]

Yes, yes...I intended to type 'should be' smilies/wink.gif

I will not forget it, nor fail to reward that which is given: fealty with love, valour with honour, oath-breaking with vengeance.

[merlilot]

Denethor to Pippin...

i just found a tone of contempt in there...like "well go find a different thread then, we don't want you here...

Maybe I read too much into it...

[Legolas]

That's almost right.

There was no offense intended. Everyone is welcome to participate smilies/wink.gif

[Telchar]

Im looking forward to this answer smilies/wink.gif

[Legolas]

I suppose I'll let merlilot have it smilies/wink.gif

It was sort of tricky. Just before it:

The old man laid the sword along his lap, and Pippin put his hand to the hilt, and said slowly after Denethor:

So, what we're reading in the text is Pippin talking, though they both said it. Had it been worded "Pippin repeated after Denethor when he said:", it would be the other way around.

A very minor technicality. Go ahead!

[Telchar]

Actually I dont agree Lego - the words from your quote I have always taken as words that only Denethor spoke - what was said just before that (pips promise) was however something that the Lord said and Pippin repeated. But I might be wrong?

[Legolas]

"The old man laid the sword along his lap, and Pippin put his hand to the hilt, and said slowly after Denethor:
[This is what I presume they both say.]
‘Here do I swear fealty and service to Gondor, and to the Lord and Steward of the realm, to speak and to be silent, to do and to let be, to come and to go, in need or plenty, in peace or war, in living or dying, from this hour henceforth, until my lord release me, or death take me, or the world end. So say I, Peregrin son of Paladin of the Shire of the Halflings.’

And this do I hear, Denethor son of Ecthelion, Lord of Gondor, Steward of the High King, and I will not forget it, nor fail to reward that which is given: fealty with love, valour with honour, oath-breaking with vengeance.’ [Where I presume Pippin stops, since the paragraph doesn't begin with a ', meaning the speaker did not change. Also, I believe Pippin was still repeating because of the part where he is to repeat that confirms that Pipp has heard and will not forget his promise to Denethor.] Then Pippin received back his sword and put it in its sheath.

‘And now,’ said Denethor, ‘my first command to you: speak and be not silent! Tell me your full tale, and see that you recall all that you can of Boromir, my son. Sit now and begin!’ As he spoke he struck a small silver gong that stood near his footstool, and at once servants came forward. Pippin saw then that they had been standing in alcoves on either side of the door, unseen as he and Gandalf entered."

I see you point Lego - and you might be right - Im not sure - to me it just wouldn't seem suitable for pip to repaet the last sentence. - I dont think we'll ever gent an answer smilies/wink.gif

[Legolas]

merlilot?

[merlilot]

Sorry...gimme another day. Please. smilies/biggrin.gif

[Telchar]

Merilot - or anyone should post a new quote - its been almost a week.

[Legolas]

Very well.

Nonsense, the one with the grey stockings.

[Belin]

Isn't that Gandalf to the trolls?

--Belin Ibaimendi

[TolkienGurl]

Um, well I'm not sure if you can just go, because it is right, or if you should wait for Legalos to say so. smilies/smile.gif

[gralin musicteeth]

it's been a week now...somebody post!

[Legolas]

Belin has it! I am private messaging her to let her know.

[Belin]

Thank you! And apologies for taking so long. How about an easy one:

It must make haste, haste!

--Belin Ibaimendi

[gralin musicteeth]

Gimli?

[hobbitlass]

Sounds like Gollum.

[Belin]

It's Gollum, indeed, but when, where, and to whom?

--Belin Ibaimendi

[hobbitlass]

To himself going to the backgate when he thought Bilbo Baggins headed that way with the ring.

[gralin musicteeth]

I spose you can go, hobbitlass.

[hobbitlass]

I care for you and yours as best I may.
