Arvegil145 has just left Hobbiton.

Doors there darkly __ dim gigantic
were hewn in the hillside; __ huge their timbers,
and their posts and lintels __ of ponderous stone. {1830}
NA-EX-48.1 <CoH Túrin in Nargothrond>
They were shut unshakeable. __ Then shrilled a trumpet 105
as a phantom fanfare __ faintly winding

Maybe it would be better at this point:

Quote:

„That I do believe,“ said Túrin.
Of their southward journey the Lay tells:

Túrin in Nargothrond


Where Narog's torrent gnashed and spouted
down his stream bestrewn with stone and boulder,
...
My reason is that it does not interrupt the poem.
