'draw from'
Absolutely no clue about the speaker.

I'm with Earniel about the speaker... no clue! Midge, do YOU have a "clue" about the speaker? Or shall we just start guessing?

Well, first of all, the quote is completed. Secondly, a little guessing never hurt anyone, come on guys!
However, I will help you. It was a man. Haha... that was a joke. There are only like, four or five women next to fifty bajillion guys. So I will broaden my "clue"... Who ranges far and wide, Meeting magic and short folk He becomes like one wise; Devotion is what he provokes. Whose family is near his heart; They are whom he loves, From he, they all keep apart. Yet he does what they say... sort of. There... have fun deciphering that riddle.

Yes! Did you like my riddle??? I'd been wanting to do that for a while, but people like Gandalf or Aragorn just are too easy to guess with that kind of thing...

Yes - VERY nice riddle! I forget, did you play the riddling game much?
I'll post something tonight (USA time) - gotta run off to work soon.

Midge - "time" was not correct - the other words were

If you're guessing "strange", that's correct.
If you're calling ME strange, that's even more so!

Okay. I had more. I had guessed "strange changes of the world" but maybe I didn't post it... I was very tired at nearly one o'clock last night.
As a matter of fact, I was guessing strange... However, I don't really feel like I am able to judge whether you really are as strange as you say you are, so I'll take your word for it, okay?

What's weird? Did something else happen?
"changes" is not correct. So we're at: "Many are the strange /_h_n_e_/ of the world, and help oft shall come from the hands of the weak when the /_i_e/_a_t_r." So - we need three words and speaker.

Well, I had posted "strange changes" at night and the next morning when I checked, it hadn't posted it yet. then I posted "That's weird" and both showed up. So I just left "That's weird" because I didn't want to bother with deleting the post (if that's even possible).
Chances... wise?

'chances', 'wise' and 'falter' are all correct - so we only need the speaker.

It doesn't sound like anything from LOTR or the Hobbit, so I am lost (if you haven't noticed, I am not very well versed in anything other than those books)...
Unless it's Gandalf talking about how the Hobbits helped when none of the big cool people could get the job of destroying the Ring done.

You're pretty much right all around - it's not in The Hobbit or LOTR, it's in "Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age" from The Silmarillion. And... it IS Gandalf - only he's speaking prophetically to Elrond about what might happen, rather than what just happened.
Your turn Midge.
