the sea heaving,
the abyss yawing, the old darkness beyond the stars falling

If I couldn't get this one I'd be a laughing stock
This is from Tolkien's translation of his poem Oilima Markirya (The Last Ark) from A Secret Vice.

Squatter,
Who shall make such a grave rebuke? Wylkynsion? or the Travestometre? Show us how 'tis done.  Beth

Laughing at Squatter 101
Actually this is easier than it looks.
1: I post 'I have absolutely no idea whence came those words...erm...eth'. 2: Someone who's been around for a while, probably that reprobate Underhill, posts 'Wait a minute: didn't you read that poem over Tolkien's grave last February, resulting in the invention of the Travest-o-Meter ©®?' 4: I skip point number three to avoid accidentally typing in a pound sign. 5: Wylkynsion mumbles 'you berk,' but only Etceteron hears him, so it's a wasted comment. 6: The Travest-o-Meter ©® detects the presence of a talking black sword made by Eöl in an RPG, factors in its terrible South London accent, and explodes. 7: Another major city bites the dust. So endeth the lesson.

Thanks for the link. Whoa. Beautiful. Everybody should check out this link! I mean, if you're clueless like me and haven't done so already...
Treat us with the next, Squatter.

The Incantathon continues
Hearken to the song of the purists.
