Yup, that's it. Good job Evisse. (And Kudos to Perky Ent too. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img])

Evisse the Blue · 02-07-2004, 08:44 AM

Wait a sec, I'm a bit confused. Who should go now? I found the quote in the book but it was Perky Ent who actually guessed it...

The Perky Ent · 02-07-2004, 10:30 AM

I guessed the quote but i couldn't find it. Therefore, visse the Blue should go!

____ stood _____. ____ _____ endlessly on. The ____ murmured in the ______ of the trees. _____ shivered.

Guinevere · 02-07-2004, 02:53 PM

....endlessly on? Hm, I have a feeling that this could be about Rauros...
Ha, found it! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

Boromir stood silent. Rauros roared endlessly on. The wind murmured in the branches of the trees. Frodo shivered.

Evisse the Blue · 02-08-2004, 04:06 PM

Correct, and record time too! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Guinevere · 02-11-2004, 08:09 AM

Thank you, Evisse!

Don't have my book but I'm pretty sure it's-
"If Shagrat himself was to offer me a glass of water, I'd shake his hand."

Guinevere · 02-11-2004, 01:55 PM

Correct! You have a fabulous memory, Phantom!

the phantom · 02-11-2004, 11:29 PM

Thank you.

Firefoot · 02-20-2004, 05:54 AM

Could you add a few more words?

Evisse the Blue · 02-20-2004, 11:30 AM

Ulmo to Tuor:
"But behold!" said he, "in the armour of Fate (as the Children of Earth name it) there is ever a rift, and in the walls of Doom a breach, until the full-making, which ye call the End. So it shall be while I endure, a secret voice that gainsayeth, and a light where darkness was decreed."

Evisse the Blue · 03-01-2004, 02:23 AM

Correct, Guinevere!

Guinevere · 03-01-2004, 01:43 PM

Hope it makes sense.
What I'm up in the Proverbs thread?
Rats lately I've been up in too many threads for my own good.
Well you'll get the question. As soon as I can find one. Maybe another year or two

Guinevere · 03-12-2004, 03:45 AM

At last I have found it in the Hobbit !

"Is that The Mountain?" asked Bilbo in a solemn voice, looking at it with round eyes. He had never seen a thing that looked so big before.

This is when they are approaching the Misty Mountains.

Sleepy Ranger · 03-12-2004, 03:58 AM

All yours.

Guinevere · 03-14-2004, 11:11 AM

OK, here goes:

Quote:

If only the Lady could see us or hear us, I 'd say to her: "Your Ladyship, all we want is light and water: just clean water and plain daylight, better than any jewels, begging your pardon."

Sam to Frodo.

'Our peril will be greatest just ere we reach the river,' said Glorfindel; 'for my heart warns me that the pursuit is now swift behind us, and other danger may be waiting by the Ford.'

Guinevere · 03-15-2004, 05:53 AM

Not so far away from the last quote, that one...

"Here," said Elrond, turning to Gandalf, "is Boromir,a man from the South. He arrived in the grey morning, and seeks for counsel. I have bidden him to be present, for here his questions will be answered."

Guinevere · 03-17-2004, 01:58 PM

Was that too easy?

Mariska Greenleaf · 03-18-2004, 05:44 AM

I wouldn't say it was too easy, it just sounded very familiar, and I knew where to look for it...

Quote:

"I saw one _-________ just now. Just______ round again, I should ____, after a __-______sleep.

good luck!

Guinevere · 03-21-2004, 07:25 AM

Ah, finally it rings a bell ...

: It's the Mirkwood-spiders talking about the poor dwarves:

"I saw one a-struggling just now. Just coming round again after a bee-autiful sleep."

Mariska Greenleaf · 03-22-2004, 04:34 AM

Yes, that's what I was looking for!
Your turn again Guinevere!
