Multiple-choice Beginnings and Endings of Quotes - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

kittiewhirl1677 · 10-16-2003, 05:38 PM

Just like the title says, read the part of the quote below and choose which of the multiple-choices fit. Also include wether what you choose starts the quote or ends it. Or, if none of the multiple-choices fit with the quote, then state instead which ending would infact be correct. By the way, these should be from the LotR books.

Quote:

Authority is not given to you,

a. But others may contest your will, when it is turned to madness and evil.

b. The City is all set about with flame, and the field is full of foes.

c. Steward of Gondor, to order the hour of your death,

d. Lead your company to the right when we pass the wall.
