Try to finish this verse:

In love of sunlit goodliness of days
There richly flowed their lives in settled hours --
But that was long ago,
And now no more they sing, nor reap, nor sow . . .

And I perforce in many a town about this isle
Unsettled wanderer have dwelt awhile.

my first attempt at this game, I hope I did okay.

That is indeed the end of the verse, eowyntje!

For any interested onlookers: it's from The Song of Eriol; The History of Eriol or Aelfwine; The Book of Lost Tales 2.

Your turn, now . . . carry on!

came falling like a rain of flowers

It was Sam in Lothlorian during the lament for Gandalf
