[Child of the 7th Age]

The example of this that struck me the most was the scene where Gandalf told Pippin about what happens after death as they gazed out at the battle scenes. PJ's Gandalf used some of the same phrases that had been used in the book to describe Frodo's dream in the house of Tom Bombadil and then repeated again by JRRT to describe what Frodo saw as he approached the shores of Tol Eressea at the very end of the tale.<P>Here is the original book quote, which refers to Frodo:<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey-rain curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a far green country under a swift sunrise.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>As this is one of my very favorite descriptions from the book, I'm glad the words made it in somewhere, even if not from Frodo's mind!<p>[ 4:11 PM January 05, 2004: Message edited by: Child of the 7th Age ]
