"Tall ships and tall kings,
three times three.
What brought they from the foundered land
over the flowing sea?
Seven stars and seven stones
and one white tree."

It's the poem about the Palantir. In the BBC radio version Gandalf sings it to Pippin during the ride to Minas Tirith. I can't find it right now in the books though... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
