Just copied onto this page so we can see the clues without having to click back.
H clue:
Possible synonyms for 'meaning' could be SENSE, GIST (which has some of GIFT in it) or POINT.
'Slender bough' could be TWIG or BRANCH 'thinned' by the removal of one or more of its letters. Or perhaps LOG.
Or ROD. But HARHODROND is Elvish, and does not satisfy the other criteria either.
Hmmm ....
