I wouldn't mind getting dragon teeth, they sound kind of neath. But I can see how the dwarves would not have thought them jewels indeed.
Will put a new quote up tomorrow.

"For" is wrong, but all the rest is correct. So only one word and the speaker.

'Now' instead of 'for'.
And I recognize the quote, but cannot for the life of me remember where I recognize it from. Should click eventually, though ...

It was Frodo who said it. On - or soon after - the wedding day of Arwen and Aragorn.

All correct. Your turn again, Val.

"went away to be destroyed" might perhaps be
"sent away to be destroyed"?

Good start Midge. I'll bold those words that are incorrect - and underline Varnafinde's change (which was correct):
"His /_o_b_/will be growing, even as he/_p_a_/here. /His eye is now straining toward us, /blind/_l_o_t/to all else that is moving. /So we must keep it. Therein lies all our hope. This, then is my/_o_n_e_/./We have not the Ring. /It/w_s_o_/o_/great/_o_l_/in his/_e_n/sent away to be destroyed/, /l_s_/i_/d_s_r_y/_s/./Without it we cannot be/f_r_e/_e_e_t/_i_/f_r_e/. /But we must at all/_o_t_/keep his eye from his/_r_e/_e_i_/. We cannot achieve victory by arms, but by arms we can give the Ring-bearer his only chance, frail though it be."

even as we speak here.
In wisdom or great folly it has been sent away to be destroyed, lest it destroy us. Without it we cannot by force detect his force. But we must at all costs

No - not 'reject' either.
I believe we have 6 words and the speaker left to solve...

'defeat' is right! Five more words and a speaker.

Yes - 'counsel' is correct.
