Perfect - that's the exact quotation I was thinking of, too!
It's the troll from 'Perry-the-Winkle.' The hobbit connection is the hobbits in the poem, and the fact that Bilbo probably wrote it, (I think). (Although thinking about it, it mentions the Lockholes, which I am not sure existed as such before around the Scouring, so maybe Sam wrote it?) I said a 'living thing,' although I suppose the characters in the poem are fictions *within* Tolkien's fiction.

Here's a little ditty I made up on the spot
Now we ride into the battle And into the red morn Our armors clink and rattle Followed by sound of the horn We wouldn't listen to their warning For this is our choice to make And with the dawn of the morning This is the path we'll take A creature of darkness stands in our path He's tall and he brings fear Large is his wrath But it'll all end right here We'll hold our own And follow the words of old We'll bring the enemy down As the prophecy foretold

The Rohirrim, and the prophecy regarding the Witch-King?

Close, but not that. It's, shall I say, more selective than that.

Eowyn and Merry specifically, during the Pelennor? They were both warned against going to war, but chose to do so anyway, and it was their actions that destroyed the Witch-King.
