Why then did davem use the term 'lover's?


Are all of you saying this love of Galadriel was not a pure thing, could not be a pure thing? Are you saying she couldn't be a muse like the classical muses or those who poets used to personify their inspiration?

What is interesting is that Galadriel herself creates objects--as davem has mentioned--who was her "muse"?
