The knife Angrist?
Daggers wrenched from owner's hold - Beren took it from Curufin's hand
Dearer bought than jewels or gold - He won it, but Curufin's arrow struck him in the chest
Seed of hatred, gift of scorn - Curufin cursed Beren after he (Beren) took the knife
Still we sting, a wreath of thorn - It tore a Silmaril from Morgoth's crown (the 'wreath of thorn')
