More accolades for Bilbo:

In closely rereading Frodo's conversations with Faramir, I was stunned by the exquisite beauty of Frodo's speech. There was never a word out of place. Every sentence was respectful and polite, every sentiment noble, every thought was gorgeously articulated. Every sentence was a pleasure to read and many of them were profound enough to be worth reading several times. I finished the chapter more in awe of Frodo than ever before.

And then I remembered who taught Frodo.

Here's to Bilbo Baggins, tutor extraordinaire.
