"What time by the moon is this? Your lullaby would waken a drunken goblin!"

not very polite of Bilbo, to say that to the Rivendell-Elves!

At least he adds "Yet I thank you!"

Aganzir · 01-07-2009, 04:19 PM

Correct.

That was rather quick, given that the second sentence lacked most letters.

Guinevere · 01-09-2009, 02:23 AM

Well, I recognized the first sentence and remembered the second because I had once used this very quote as "palantir".

"----/ --/ ---/ ----/ ---/ --------/? ---/ -----/ --/ --/ -----/ ---/ -/ ----/ --/ ----/ -----/."

"I would cut off your head, dwarf, if it stood but a little higher from the ground. "

Eomer to that pesky son of Gloin, who in his turn was one of the pesky
participants in a rather Unexpected Party.

Btw, the quote might also be used by Eomer to PJ regarding his scene
reductions in the movies.
