Yes indeed, Guinevere! I always chuckle over the way Tolkien characterizes him - at the above statement he bursts into song, says "A bad omen" cheerfully, and calls Hilarius and Felix "ominous names"!

My goodness, I had nearly forgotten that one.
It is said by one of your order, Heren Istarion!

Then it must have been said by Gandalf - he's the only one who would say those polite words!
On second thought, Gandalf is nowhere to be found in the minor works - let's see, a wizard? Oh, it's Artaxerxes, doing his magic on Roverandom!

Exactly!
and I'm not quite sure to whom he says "Thank you!" - to the magic bag perhaps ?
