An H or two would help. :)

"Well/, Merry/ People/!" (......) "What/ time/ by/ the/ moon/ is/ this/? Your/ lullaby/ woulkd/ waken/ a/ drnken/ goblin/! Yet/ I/ thank you."

Bilbo to the ah (gay?) elves on his way back to Hobbiton.

Guinevere 03-15-2006 08:24 AM

That's it!
 
Well done Tuor!

Tuor of Gondolin 03-15-2006 08:33 AM

Thanks.

Here's a new one. It's a partial quote,
to make it a bit more difficult.

Sorry. No "r"s. :confused:

Guinevere 03-16-2006 02:03 PM

Well, I can guess the quote, but I do not know whence it comes.

Quote:

"I do not know. It is too distant to make out."
The speaker might be Legolas, or Aragorn perhaps? :rolleyes:

Tuor in Gondolin 03-17-2006 10:03 AM

The quote answer is correct by B]Guinevere[/B] .
I think she deserves credit for identifying the
character. It's Strider, as the four hobbitses and
he are approaching Amon Sul and see flares that
turn out to be Gandalf dueling with some nazgul.

Guinevere 03-17-2006 02:51 PM

Thank you, Tuor! :)
(I was looking in the wrong book! I just guessed that it must be someone noble saying "I do not know" instead of "I don't know")

Well, here is a new one:

Quote:

"The staff in the hand of a wizard may be more than a prop for age," said Hama. He looked hard at the ash-staff on which Gandalf leaned. "Yet in doubt a man of worth will trust to his own wisdom."
Hama to Gandalf.

Guinevere 03-20-2006 07:59 AM

That's it, Firefoot! :) please proceed.
