I found this in the chapter "Treebeard" in TTT. It's the page before Treebeard sings his song of the Entwives:
Quote:
|
Very fair she was still in my eyes, when I had last seen her, though little like the Entmaiden of old. For the Entwives were bent and browned by their labour; their hair parched by the sun to the hue of ripe corn and their cheeks like red apples. Yet the eyes were still the eyes of our own people.

A rather good description, though it doesn't say that they didn't resemble the Ents. I guess I formed that picture only in my imagination.
