1. Descriptive moniker for a heavenly person.
INSIDE: Bilbo was sent to find this kind of information.
NEVER: Five of these make one line of pentameter in ‘King Lear.’
AMROTH: He appears to have shared Shelley’s and Ophelia’s fate.
LIE: Deceive or lounge – doubly satanic?
LUTHIEN: She’s in the loo, we hear! And quite mixed up.
7. Two prepositions? Goes before the woods, musically.
8. A sailor is a little confused at the parting word.
9. A riser loses, initially, but the sun rises here.
10. Spectacles with publicity inside? Gloomy things, though!

No, it's nothing like that.

Think of a 'heavenly' person.

F Descriptive moniker for a heavenly person.
INSIDE: Bilbo was sent to find this kind of information. (A box without hinges, key or lid)
NEVER: Five of these make one line of pentameter in ‘King Lear.’ (What has roots as nobody sees?)
AMROTH: He appears to have shared Shelley’s and Ophelia’s fate. (An elven-maid there was of old)
LIE: Deceive or lounge – doubly satanic? (Oliphaunt)

LUTHIEN: She’s in the loo, we hear! And quite mixed up. (Farewell sweet earth and northern sky)
I Two prepositions? Goes before the woods, musically.
N A sailor is a little confused at the parting word.
E A riser loses, initially, but the sun rises here.
S Spectacles with publicity inside? Gloomy things, though!

What was Earendil called in a final line?

N is Namarie, from Mariner. Namarie means 'farewell'.

The I one is hard to find, though.

Correct answer, but to be pedantic it's from A MARINE, which accounts for all the letters, with none left over.

There's a Sondheim musical involving woods. Not one of his best, admittedly.

Also, from now on, my passwords will (generally) not be cryptic.

I know Eol fell, but he was pushed.

Maeglin fell, but he had a spear in him, I think?

L - the only group of people beginning with L that I can think of is the LAIQUENDI. But ill-fated? Unless it's because they're fated to fade and turn rustic - which they perhaps already are compared to other groups of elves?

No. Search Tolkien Gateway for Elven-related groups beginning with L. That's how I found them. They are also known by a more common name, however.

Light Elves? I think that term is used in 'The Hobbit,' alongside more 'everyday sounding' names for other kinds of elves, too.

... Lingerers - but to linger isn't to flee.

... LINDAR - the Teleri?

None of those. Try subgroups of Noldor. (Or more precisely, Gondolinians), beginning with L.
