Re: Go!

<blockquote>Quote:<hr> &quot;Thou art the inmost province of the fading isle
Where linger yet the Lonely Companies.
Still, undespairing, do they sometimes slowly file
Along thy paths with plaintive harmonies:
The holy fairies and immortal elves
That dance amoung the trees and sing themselves
A wistful song of things that were, and could be yet.
They pass and vanish in a sudden breeze,
A wave o bowing grass--and we forget
Their tender voices like wind-shaken bells
Of flowers, their gleaming hair like golden asphodels.<hr></blockquote>

The answer, then, would be 'the Lonely Companies,' holy faeries and immortal elves. Thankyou for introducing to me that poem Sharku (The alt codes are stuffing up, Opera 5 doesn't have an 'insert symbol' option and IE always crashes. ACK! <img src=smile.gif ALT=""> ) it truly is one of Tolkien's more beautiful and melodic writings.

Not to say it's the only one <img src=wink.gif ALT="">
