Without hinges
Turning, turning

Without teacher
Learning, learning.
- right, since they read
Ever heads are bowing to us
Ever thus do you behold us.
- unless the book is on the ceiling, this is pretty much accurate.

From Anor’s gloom with secrets found
To Black Pit where one is bound, - what on earth?
Among leaves that never were green
There we are seen.
- this part is more or less clear, refering to the leafs of a book.

Men, dwarves and Elves
Our treasures delve.
- delve the books' knowledge?
Red am I ‘neath Northern sky
I say to you; “twice red am I.”
- the read Red Book


So I suppose my answer is Books, or texts, but to be honest I'm very confused. Other than what I had in my previous post I'm still clueless.
