You know, the more I look at the prose Narn, the more I appreciate the Professor's skill. It's like he wrote it so that it looks as if it could have been taken from an alliterative verse in reality! Take Niënor's cry at the Taeglin, for instance:
Quote:
A Túrin Turambar turún' ambartanen:
master of doom by doom mastered!
|
These are lines of alliterative verse!
