Guinevere is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
"works" is correct! Strange, how different people keep different quotes in their memory...
Galadriel says those words to Frodo in "The mirror of Galadriel" when he asks her what she would wish for.
Quote:
"That what should be, shall be. The love of the elves for their land and their works is deeper than the deeps of the sea, and their regret is undying and cannot ever wholly be assuaged. Yet they will cast all away rather than submit to Sauron; for they know him now. "
right after this speech, Frodo offers her the ring.

your turn, Kath! you really deserve it after that long hard guess-work!
