I suppose we are agreed on dropping The Horns of Ulmo - for the present, at least. I do think it's unfortunate to lose the poem. Out of the possibilities raised so far, to be honest, I like my... |

So we have a vote against the conservative emendations. I'm certainly sympathetic to that. All quotes are from Findegil's last post. Line 1: Nor does the original "'Twas". Sometimes,... |

The Horns of Ulmo Looking at this again, it seems to me that Jallanite's first line does not work (nor our slight modification to it). Jallanite's version: Our latest proposal: |

Good point, Findegil. I agree with your change. I think that we can pretty safely say that "Oarni" is to be changed to "Earni". The remaining question, of course, is whether they are to be... |

Yes, the question seems to be whether Oarni/Earni is Quenya or Sindarin. I had assumed that "Oarni" was Qenya. It certainly looks more like Qenya than Gnomish. And though I don't have the Qenya... |

Ah; I'm sorry, I glanced too quickly at the emendation and thought that the element in square brackets was an entirely new editorial bridge. I don't disagree at all about the fact that Idril gives... |

I suppose the tricky point is deciding whether "[and before they left Idril] . . ." is too great a liberty. This ties in with what I just said in the part 2 thread; I think that when Jallanite and I... |
