No worries Inziladun.
 ok I just read Hicklin's post...I don't think he's convinced about this numbers thing. Regarding the numbers in the Ring poem. I did some research about 4 years ago. 3, 7, 9 are the numbers representing the Fall of Elves, Dwarves and the Mortal Men. Christ also fell at the 3rd, 7th and 9th stations of the Cross on the Via Dolorosa. You can also find 3 scriptures, Meditations and Prayers associated with the Via Dolorosa on the Vatican website which bear uncanny resemblance to the narratives and characters of those 3 races. I'll go and dig out my pdf..... ok I've cut loads of stuff from this. It's 47 pages long with a lot of etymologies in it. I'll post a very brief summary of it in a new thread shortly and link you all. See also my post regarding Tolkien's use of Dante's number system above. The new thread is here. http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthr...218#post729218 monks Last edited by monks; 10-11-2020 at 04:20 PM. |
