They came now to the foot of Orthanc. It was black, and the rock gleamed as if it were wet. The many faces of the stone had sharp edges as though they had been newly chiselled. A few scorings, and small flake-like splinters near the base, were all the marks that it bore of the fury of the Ents.
(From TTT, chapter "The voice of Saruman".)

Thank you, TolkienGurl ! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] (Before I discovered Tolkien, the tales about King Arthur used to be my favourite ones... And my husbands name is Arthur! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] )

There are too many blanks, apparently. So I'll put in some additional words. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
"_______ or _____?" said _______. "It is not _______, for _______ is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt. We do not. It is wisdom to recognize _________, when all other courses have been weighed, though as _____ it may ______ to those who cling to false ____. Well, let _____ be our _____, a ____ before the ____ of the Enemy."

I don't have my book, so I'm trying to go off memory here. I don't know if I got everything right, but if not, it should at least help other people anyway.
"Despair, or folly?" said Gandalf. "It is not despair, for despair is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt. We do not. It is wisdom to recognize necessity, when all other courses have been weighed, though as folly it may seem to those who cling to false hope. Well, let folly be our cloak, a veil before the eyes of the Enemy." [ February 05, 2003: Message edited by: the phantom ]

Ha ha!! Sweet! I'm reading LOTR again, and I just read that part last weekend, so it was fresh in my head.
Here's mine... "The last is most ______, if you ride to ___ door with a _____ heart," said _______. "But there is no knowing what __ can __, or may choose to ___. A ____ beast ________ is not safe to ________. And _______ has ______ you do not guess. ______ of his _____!" [ February 06, 2003: Message edited by: the phantom ]

I, too, am re-reading LotR, and I just read this last night.
"The last is most likely, if you ride to his door with a light heart," said Gandalf. "But there is no knowing what he can do, or may choose to try. A wild beast cornered is not safe to approach. And Saruman has powers you do not guess. Beware of his voice!"

He would come with me, of course, if I asked him. In fact he offered to once, just before the party. But he does not really want to, yet. I want to see the wild country again before I die, and the Mountains; but he is still in love with the Shire, with woods and fields and little rivers.

That would be Frodo to Gollum. Here are the fill in the blanks as far as I can see.
"Come!" Frodo said. "You have served us well and Faithfully. This is the last stage. Bring us to the entrance, and then I will not hold you to go further. Bring us to the tunnel and you may go where you wish- only not to our enemies." I think thats about it. I have not read that part itself in a while so some of the words may be a bit off, sorry about that. Dondagnirion "There is no spoon."

I don't have my book right now, but I'm fairly certain there are three words that are a bit off.

So, is anyone going to finish this thing off? Dondagnirion had the right scene and all, just had some words wrong.
Anyone??

"Come!" Frodo said "You have guided us well and faithfully. Bring us to the gate, and then I will not ask you to go further. Bring us to the gate, and you may go where you wish- only not to our enemies."

When I answered, you had the word "thought" instead of "only". I see you have changed it since then.

Well, then, this is an interesting situation. If alaklondewen posted before eleanor edited, then alak gets to go. If not, eleanor gets to go.
You two decide who gets to go.

Sam was right, I think. Frodo did not wish to lead any friend to death with him in Mordor. But he knew that he must go himself. Something happened after he left us that overcame his fear and doubt.
