When did you cry?

I had to check the exact words, opened the book and look what happened! That settles it, I am not going to check anything else... *walks away, sobbing*

Ah! Legate! That's so sad.

Actually, yes, that part makes me cry nearly as much as Frodo's 'death' after Shelob. I had simply forgotten it. Pop and them laughed at me last time we read The Hobbit aloud because I was sitting over there crying.
