Frodo and Boromir

Well as with all who are tested "by" Frodo or any ringbearer Boromor goes through his torment and the ring talks to him why the little hobbit is not the best bearer or that with the ring he could show his father that he can or even that he could take up the fight with Sauron. It is malice, hatred and all evil so every chance it could take it would try to convince a weak in mind to take up the ring and claim it as his own. This could probably be discussed by many and agreed upon if not the ring is at hand. As we see it influence Maia as well as all ohter at Elronds "meeting". It lures Gandalf, Aragorn and Galadriel but they can resist its calling. Boromir cannot at first but he does come to and end when he has accepted Frodo as the true ring bearer for the mission however late it is for his own sake.

Also Frodo if anyone knows what is on Boromirs mind. He alone is the one who can see the power of the ring both from using it and bearing it. He does forgive Gollum, of course he forgives Boromir. Please do not say that he does not since anything other than that is "folly" as Boromir himself would have said.
