Belegorn has just left Hobbiton.
In Letter 181 the reason for Saruman's fall is given as; impatience > forcing others to do what they think is good > by any means making their will effective. Since they were clad in bodies, they were subject to sin like other incarnates, as well as weariness, pain, et cetera.
