Guinevere is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Question

Hm, I don't know any Russian. The only words I was able to find out are "den" = day and "proshchai"= farewell... But this and the exclamation mark, together with the hints that you gave, leads me to guess that it could be the beginning of Bilbo's Last Song
Quote:
Day is ended, dim my eyes,
but journey long before me lies.
Farewell, friends! I hear the call.
The ship's beside the stony wall.
Foam is white and waves are grey,
beyond the sunset leads my way.
Have I guessed right ? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
