I think we're just not coming up with the name of the speaker. Is it time we surrender, and let BB post the next?

I'm fine with either. You can take the next quote to if you feel so inclined, you found where the quote is from.

Better if Butterbeer does it. But I don't know if he has logged on in awhile. I will try to post one this evening, if he hasn't come and done it.

All correct on the first line. I think the words of this one will go together pretty easily.

Always line-by-line with you, isn't it Varna.
Still - one more line solved.

Third line all correct too!
This one is a decent length, but turns out to be too easy, I think.

When it's a text I don't recognize, and I can manage most of a line, I will indeed do the text line-by-line ...
Today will be a little different, though, as I first saw what the second line would be, and that then helped me to work out the first line. And to guess at the third. /It/is/against/our/law/to/let/strangers/wander/at/will/in/our/land/, /until/the/king/himself/shall/give/them/leave/, /and/more/strict/is/the/_o_m_n_/if/these/pass/of/_e_i_/.

"if" and "pass" not correct in last line - otherwise, all correct.

"True indeed. But I do not doubt you,
nor the deed which my heart would do. Yet I am not free to do all as I would. It is against our law to let strangers wander at will in our land, until the king himself shall give them leave, and more strict is the command inthese days of/_e_i_/. I have begged you to come back willingly with me, and you will not. /L_t_/a_/I/_o/_e_i_/a/_a_t_e/_f/_n_/h_n_r_d/_g_i_s_/t_r_e." Éomer is speaker if I place the quote right? |

All adds are correct - as is the speaker!

Loath am i to begin a of one hundred against three
Blimey..knew i knew the quote, but you know i was thinking it was Haldir in Lothlorien ... though the King bit had me worried about that.. Eomer, of course! cant get that other word though..thought it should be fight.. mind you 'loath' doesnt fight either?? Could have sworn 'loath' would have been right. |

"Loath" is not correct - your other attempts are all correct. That leaves us with three unsolved words.

"battle" is correct - two words left.

If this is helpful: for one of the words, remember that English can be a funny language. We might have two very different words that sound alike, but are spelled similarly. Or - those two different words could even have somewhat similar meanings - for example, one is a verb, the other an adjective. And yet... different spellings.
