Here's a new one for you:

Quote:

Not to be taken personally by anyone, of course!

Tuor of Gondolin · 05-31-2006, 08:06 AM

We wants some nice "s"ssssss.

Verily thus spake Agatha the Queen-to-be-but-than-farmer's-wife upon Garm the dog:

Quote:

Shut up!... or you'll never live to see if he comes back or he don't.

Referring, of course, to valiant Julius' brave venture to North-West in order to claim treasure promised (but never brought) by the dragon...

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-01-2006, 06:33 AM

Right you are, and nice to have you active on this thread again, HI! Pray proceed with a new one.

HerenIstarion · 06-01-2006, 06:40 AM

Thank you, m'am, indeed it's great to pay calls to places of old glory

New one may in part be applied to yours truly's situation as it is now... but I'll explain myself later, when you crack the quote

Quote:

--- ----, --- ----, --- ----- --- ---- - ---- -- ---- -- ---. -- ---! -- --- --- --- --- ---! --- ------‘- --- --- --- --!

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-01-2006, 06:41 AM

HerenIstarion · 06-01-2006, 06:59 AM

Of course there are lots...

Note: Mark difference with the post above - I messed my two r's up there, new version is correct.

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-01-2006, 08:21 AM

T-time!

HerenIstarion · 06-01-2006, 08:30 AM

Sornt? What on earth a 'sornt' may be? I suppose we'll never know... but should we care? It's a tea time!

Aha!

T time indeed!

Quote:

You Jack, and Hogg, old Bunce and Pott
I wish no more to see.
Be off! Be off now all the lot!
The Winkle's the boy for me!

The lonely Troll chasing away the other Hobbits...

HerenIstarion · 06-01-2006, 08:40 AM

Tea time and answer to the T

And now explanation I owe you - I chase off my friends wishing to see 'the boy for me' - my son, as he's too small yet for visitors

You have the grounds, lady Guinevere

Guinevere · 06-01-2006, 09:33 AM

Thank you! and here's another one for you

"--------/ -----/ ----/ --/ -/ ------/ --/ ---/ ---/ --/ -----/ ----/ -------/ ----."

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-01-2006, 09:45 AM

Sssss pleassse, precioussss...

Guinevere · 06-01-2006, 09:50 AM

"--s-----/ -----/ ----/ -s/ -/ --ss--/ --/ ---/ ---/ --/ ----s/ ----/ ------s/ ----."

Tuor of Gondolin · 06-01-2006, 10:39 AM

"a's?

Guinevere · 06-01-2006, 01:22 PM

"--s-----/ -----/ -a--/ as/ -/ -***--/ --/ ---/ ---/ --/ -a--s/ ----/ ------s/ ----."

Edit: Silly censure-program! *** = A.S.S.

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-01-2006, 01:37 PM

N-y time's the right time for Ns!

Guinevere · 06-01-2006, 01:51 PM

N - but we only has one

"--s-----/ -----/ -a--/ as/ -/ -***--/ --/ ---/ ---/ --/ -a--s/ ----/ --n---s/ ----."

*** = A.S.S.

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-01-2006, 02:02 PM

Hmmm, would a "P" help get rid of that editing problem?

Guinevere · 06-02-2006, 02:30 AM

Thank you for removing the stars, Esty!

But I'm sorry there are no other P's

"--s-----/ -----/ -a--/ as/ -/ pass--/ --/ ---/ ---/ --/ -a--s/ ----/ --n---s/ ----."

Tuor in Gondolin · 06-02-2006, 10:40 AM

"e"s?

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-02-2006, 10:54 AM

...and Ts, please, while you're at it.

Guinevere · 06-03-2006, 09:31 AM

"-est-e-e/ t-e-e/ -a-e/ as/ -/ passe-/ --/ t-e/ ---/ --/ -a-es/ ----/ --n---s/ ----."

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-03-2006, 10:16 AM

I'm puzzling over that first word - are there any Rs?

Guinevere · 06-03-2006, 10:25 AM

Good question!

"-estre-e/ t-ere/ -a-e/ as/ -/ passe-/ --/ t-e/ -r-/ --/ -a-es/ -r--/ --n---s/ ----."

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-03-2006, 10:32 AM

Still searching, but maybe another letter wil help: D, please.

Guinevere · 06-04-2006, 12:29 PM

TRAPS END

"-estre-e/ t-ere/ -a-e/ as/ -/ passed/ --/ t-e/ -r-/ --/ -a-es/ -r--/ --nd--s/ ----."

Estelyn Telcontar · 06-04-2006, 02:33 PM

I'm going to have to keep trying letters - I have no clue as yet where to find that line.

Y, please.

edit: No need, I guessed the first letter right and finally found the quote! It's in The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun; the speaker is not clear, but I assume it is one of their people saying:

Quote:

Yestreve there came as I passed by
the cry of babes from windows high.

Guinevere · 06-04-2006, 02:37 PM

Good choice!
