Guinevere 02-01-2007 06:39 AM

there are 3 words I can't get (yet)

--al , ----s , --r-to-or- (especially the last one! :rolleyes: )

perhaps some E's would make it clearer...

Macalaure 02-01-2007 06:56 AM

The E might just do the job. :)

Guinevere 02-01-2007 07:07 AM

Indeed! :)

Arise and go, and no more work
like Morgoth's slaves or cursed Orc;
and deal, proud son of Fëanor,
in deeds more proud than heretofore.

But I still don't know where it's from, or who says this to whom.

Macalaure 02-01-2007 07:13 AM

It's Beren to Curufin, after Luthien talked him out of strangling him.

Your turn again! :)

Guinevere 02-02-2007 01:46 PM

Thank you! :)

Beren is really very polite to the fellow, after his malicious attack!!

OK, let me see if I still have a quote left...

'Eilinel the fair

where she doth dwell and wait for thee
together shall ye ever be,
and sundered shall ye sigh no more.

:smokin:

Guinevere 02-04-2007 11:09 AM

:eek: Wow! you got it, with only two letters! Chapeau! :)

Macalaure 02-04-2007 12:41 PM

The capital E gave it away. Eilinel does not appear that often. :)

I feel like straying from the Lay of Leithian:

Guinevere 02-08-2007 03:45 AM

hm, what kind of other blood can a half-Noldo have ? :rolleyes: (or perhaps my conjecture is wrong anyway...)

Let's have some T to see things clearer !

Macalaure 02-08-2007 04:00 AM

Correct conjecture, wrong letter. :p

Guinevere 02-08-2007 05:34 AM

Oh, but the T's confirmed my guessings of "and they say that I have -r----an blood and that I am half-Noldo. And that is not said ? ? in these days. "

There's more I can guess but I lack the relevant words.
"It is but a ? from being ? ? a Gnome to being ? God--ar---; (what on earth could this be? ) and that is dangerous."

E please !
