Frodo is the speaker, and the attempted words are all correct except 'may'.
That just leaves that word and "/o_t/" to solve.

"can" instead of may
Don't know what the last word is, hmm...

Goldberry - I missed your post on that. Yes - 'can' is correct.
Can ANYONE get that last word, or are you guys just hesitant to solve? I accidentally gave the missing letter in my post above - but just corrected it to what I had originally shown.

Why the rolly-eyes, DPR? People have been known to withhold the final part of a solution, so they don't have to post the next quote.

I think we've probably all done it at times - at least once you've played the game long enough.
Anyway - you are correct with 'out' - so, Varnafinde - it's your turn!

I wasn't rolling eyes at you, Val. At everyone, including myself, who didn't solve the last word.

I was wondering about 'out' but I wasn't familiar about the expression 'to pay somebody out'. Then I got distracted by something shiny and forgot all about it.

Then it seemed as if the log was slowly catching us up.
And that was peculiar, as you might say, seeing as we were all /_l_a_i_g/on the /s_r_a_/together. Just then I saw the eyes: two pale sort of points, s_i_y/-wise, in a /h_m_/ as the /_e_r/and on the log. What's more, it wasn't a log, for it had paddle-feet, like a swan's almost, only they seemed bigger, and went dipping in and out of the water. That's when I sat right up and rubbed my eyes, meaning to give a shout, if it was still there when I had rubbed the drowse out of my head. ~Samwise

To DPR, before seeing Valandil's post:
Only a few mistakes: s_i_y/-wise, in (line 5) as (line 5) and on (line 5) went (line 7) Otherwise it's correct. And Samwise is indeed the speaker.

To Valandil, before reading any other posts in case anyone else manages to get one in
in (line 3) is not correct went (line 7) is still not correct Otherwise it's fine, and line 5 has been corrected now. So I looked for something shiny to use in here, to keep her from being distracted.

It's "on" the stream...could we get a repost of the quote with the missing bits?

On the stream is correct.
Only one missing bit now: Then it seemed as if the log was slowly catching us up. And that was peculiar, as you might say, seeing as we were all floating on the stream together. Just then I saw the eyes: two pale sort of points, shiny-like, on a hump at the near end of the log. What's more, it wasn't a log, for it had paddle-feet, like a swan's almost, only they seemed bigger, and /_e_t/ dipping in and out of the water. That's when I sat right up and rubbed my eyes, meaning to give a shout, if it was still there when I had rubbed the drowse out of my head.

Yes - I thought 'on' was correct, but tried 'in' to lock-up the post (just in case). Only there was still another word wrong.
'kept'? Sorry so sloppy on that last post - ie, keeping it as a DPR quote, etc. But I was being called away from the computer and didn't have much time for cleanup.
