![]() In my book (HarperCollins, ed.1994) Cirdan says: "But as for me, my heart is with the Sea, and I will dwell by the grey shores until the last ship sails. I will await you." I wonder that there are such differences... I guess your version is the original one, because an editor would probably not add more text or change "you" to "thee".. ![]()

Quote:
The single letter later was either “I” or “A” I assumed “I” which would make the fourth word “me” to setting up the subject I. And the phrase that fit best was “But as for me” A far simpler explanation I made a bunch of assumptions and got lucky.

Well assuming that’s an L left behind and not the punctuation might as well fill the rest in L

“Too well the”?
Possibly. I’ll take H and see if we can break out the Thes.

I really really want to take this down with no letters. “, **,” is the key. I’ve plugged in every two letter word that makes sense between two commas but can’t find anything.
Fine I’ll try the old fashioned way. E

TWO semicolons in this one. Hm. Let's mix things up a little and start with a W. |
