Most is correct, but "of" and "good" are incorrect.

Good job. Just an editorial comment here. Feanor's "wisdom" was once again proved foolish by his pride. Those he left behind were not "needless baggage" but rather they could have helped him deal Morgoth a defeat that would have changed history for thousands of years.

I'm trying to come back to the board, it's just been a busy fall. I can't post right now, I have to get ready for work soon, but I'll get one up tonight when I get back.

Is it bad form to grab it when I can?

But/first/I/will/plead/this/excuse/./Had/I/seen/her/in/other/company/,
I/would/have/said/all/that/you/would/wish/./But/now/I/will/put/Queen/
Arwen/Evenstar/first/,/and/I/am/ready/to/do/battle/of/my/own/part/

The speaker is Eomer (to Gimli about Galadriel - I love that little scene).

Very close! But "would" in the second line and "of" in the fourth line are wrong. They're very close, though.

As far as I can see, there isn't even the word "of" in the entire quote, let alone the fourth line!

All that you could wish... I looked at the first "would" and thought... what else would fit with "w_u_d"???

Should it be battle/on/my/own/part/

I edited away an "of" there, possibly after Rinkë had read it - I've done some unfortunate editing before, so it could be that. I should stop doing that altogether. I could put it back to explain for later ...

It's in the third line, though

I was looking and looking and thinking, "WHERE IS THAT 'OF'???"

But the letters were /_o_l_/ - so I'll say "could".

If you'll notice in my post that you quoted, Val, I also said "could", only I guess I didn't make it unique enough.

It says, "All that you could wish... I looked at the first 'would'..."
