MIDDLE: Hey diddle diddle, this earth’s in the centre. (The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins)
OROFARNE: Sandwich a cookie unevenly around a nasally altered farm and see what springs up. (O Orofarne, Lassemista, Carnimirie!) ROCKETS: They’ll soothe a sore throat, if the liquid is changed. (The finest rockets ever seen) ERMABWED: After hesitation, the fairies’ midwife married him. (Light as Leaf on Lindentree) F Christmassy, but dangerous here. IN: What knights say, if you play the tape backwards. (In Dwimordene, in Lorien) RINGS: A drummer loses nothing, but hisses for them. ('The Lord of the Rings' / Is one of those things) S A singer from the Seventies – hoping to sound like this? TROLL: He’s much nicer when he joins forces with a Moomin. (Troll sat alone on his seat of stone) L Whether sweet or salt, it cools a hot mouth. I: Simply the first person. (I sit beside the fire and think) NOT: You tie one, K? (Take that away). (All that is gold does not glitter) ELVEN-KINGS: Almost a dozen monarchs have lost their way. (Three Rings for the elven-kings under the sky) SANG: Of French blood? (I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew) Indeed. You'll find the L one in a good Indian restaurant, if you ask for it.

1. Give them this. 2. He doesn't fib. 3. He is above the world, literally. 4. An unmarried woman, she. 5. Much to Robb's chagrin, he could be called 'King in the North' too. 6. Just a preposition. 7. Young boys, they. 8. Wife of the God King. 9. A place of peace and joy.

1. Miruvor?
8. Varda, spouse of Manwë? Or maybe GILTHONIEL? Password - MORE SONGS? 9. SHIRE? 6. OVER? Or MORE LINES, with IN for 6 and ELBERETH for 8?

8 must be lads, but I can't think of a poem title it's in. 7. Tol Eressea?

MAID for M? 'An elven-maid there was of old.'
Is the Robb one TURIN? Is the building TOWER, because a boat can tow something and so be a tower?

Not Tom. Think of the NORTHMEN.

IN: Just a preposition. TOWER: A building that is also a boat. LADS: Young boys, they. ELBERETH: Wife of the God King. SHIRE: A place of peace and joy.
