S please
(Is there a missing letter in the first word, or am I mistaken ?

If yes, I can guess at least the first part of the sentence )

Macalaure · 09-12-2006, 09:14 AM

Guinevere is right, of course. Ah! The counting!

There was only one word I couldn't figure out (-o- =joy) but fortunately there were enough clues to find where the quote comes from!

Quote:

Foresight is given to the Eldar in many things not far off, though seldom of joy, and I say to thee: thou shalt live long in the order of your kind, and he will go forth before thee and he will not wish to return.

Finrod speaking to Andreth about Aegnor.
