Child, Nar, & Bethberry, you all amaze me with your erudition and vision. I, too, doubt that Tolkien meant that the spirit of the vanishing Oxford countryside was somehow invulnerable to the effects of the Ring. It's just not in keeping with everything else Tolkien wrote. I guess I just saw those notions of TB as that spirit and his playing with the Ring as a fascinating juxtaposition.

Nar, I can appreciate your feeling of standing on the plain of Rohan while looking at things as from the eyes of an Eagle, if I may so conjecture. I just finished reading the section where Eomer meets Aragorn for the first time.

You think you're drowning in deep waters, Bethberry. blub blub blub
