Can we start a quote after a partial stop (aka, commas, semicolons, and colons)? Because if we can, here's one for U:

"...Until at last on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a far green country under a swift sunrise."

Book VI, Chapter IX, "The Grey Havens".
Frodo's first glimpse of Elvenhome.
