Here we have tosn: Quote:

Esty, did you notice that for several posts in a row now we keep perfect distance of 300 posts in between our post score?
That aside, there are some e's in there, sure: Quote:

No, I haven't been paying attention to my post count, HI, but I did find the quote! It's Aotrou, speaking to his wife Itroun (in the Lay named after them):

White Knight re: not purely white, rather whitish or even greyish . But I try harder! And the quote itself re: Of course, my lady, you are entitled to proceed

WARNING: Just this once, I am using a line that is not a quote; it is not spoken directly by anyone, but is a part of the narrative. However, it seemed such an appropriate tribute to Heren and Mrs. Istarion that I decided to use it anyway.

hm... -l--_lilies... and something about a wedding...
Old Tom Bombadil had a merry wedding, crowned all with buttercups, hat and feather shedding; his bride with forgetmenots and flag-lilies for garland was robed all in silver-green. A lovely picture indeed!

You'd forgotten Barrow-wight dwelling in the old mound up there on hill-top with the ring of stones round. The Barrow-wight to Tom Bombadil . (it took me forever to figure out what letter could possibly come after the ' ) BtW, thank you for the O's, Tuor! It must be frustrating for you, the results getting snatched away from you every time. I feel rather guilty , but just can't resist...
