Twas in the land of willows where the grass is long and green-
I was fingering my harp-strings, for a wind had crept unseen
And was speaking in tree-tops, while the voices of the reeds
Were whispering reedy whispers as the sunset touched the meads,
Inland musics subtly magic that those reeds alone could weave-
'Twas in the Land of Willows that once Ylmir came at eve.

Wow! Phantom be " 'da man".
I thought it might be tricky, especially Ylmir.

P.S. Sorry for the delay answering. I had some chest (minor) pains and my
doctor sent me to a hospital for tests. All turned out negative, but THERE
AREN'T COMPUTERS IN HOSPITAL ROOMS! (Just a lot of sick people).
Now I see a use for laptops.

"Come! I will lead you now!" he called. "We must obey his last command. Follow me!"

Aragorn to the Fellowship. He is speaking about Gandalf.
