Theoden about Wormtongue?

Dear Morsul

seeing how we all are stumped, would you care to reveal the answer, and, as a victor, pose as a new question (but books this time, ple-ease, not movies, as the thread is, in general, book-oriented)

cheers

No, it's not that, the non quote was spoken earlier than that. And 'springtime' is mentioned in that dialogue but not by the speaker of the non-quote.

Any more tries? Anyone? it's easy really. Check FOTR.

I will venture a guess. In the chapter titled "Lothlorien" Legolas describes the woods of Lothlorien . . .

Quote:

'There lie the woods of Lothlorien!' said Legolas. 'That is the fairest of all the dwellings of my people. There are no trees like the trees of that land. For in the autumn their leaves fall not, but turn to gold. Not till the spring comes and the new green opens do they fall, and then the boughs are laden with yellow flowers; and the floor of the wood is golden, and golden is the roof, and its pillars are of silver, for the bark of the trees is smooth and grey. So still our songs in Mirkwood say. My heart would be glad if I were beneath the eaves of that wood, and it were springtime!'

'My heart will be glad, even in the winter,' said Aragorn. 'But it lies many miles away. Let us hasten!' . . .

". . .or in springtime we may indeed behold it."

Is that it?
