fair as eressea
is it "wander here untoucheD" as in, did you forget a letter on the end of that word?

***Varnafindë*** · 12-25-2008, 09:44 AM

"Alas, for the weakness of the Great! For a mighty king is Gil-galad,
and wise in all lore is Master Elrond, and yet they will not aid me in my labours.
Can it be that they do not desire to see other lands become as blissful as their own?
But wherefore should Middle-earth remain for ever desolate and dark,
whereas the Elves could make it as /fair/ as Eressëa, nay even as Valinor?
And since you have now returned thither, as you might,
I perceive that you love this Middle-Earth, as do I.
Is it not then our task to labour together for its /_n_i_h_e_t/,
and for the raising of all the Elven-kindred that wander here /u_t_u_h_/ to the height of that /power/ and /_n_w_e_g_/ which those have who are beyond the sea?"

(Italics for Midge's input, bold for mine)

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 12-25-2008, 09:51 AM

It's all good at this point.

***Varnafindë*** · 12-25-2008, 11:36 AM

I didn't put in her 'untouched', though - is that right as well, with the D at the end?

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 12-25-2008, 11:54 AM

untouched is incorrect.

***Valandil*** · 12-25-2008, 03:16 PM

Oh - 'untaught' maybe?

'knowledge' for the second of the other two words?

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 12-25-2008, 05:22 PM

'Untaught' and 'knowledge' are correct.

One word left. The previous speaker guess was correct. Sauron/Annatar.

Goldberry1 · 12-27-2008, 08:57 PM

I think it's "enrichment".

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 12-27-2008, 11:16 PM

You are correct Goldberry. Your turn.

***Varnafindë*** · 12-28-2008, 10:21 PM

otherwise /then/ you spoke:

/as/brothers/whose/houses/stand/side/by/side/.

/Therefore/we/will/neither/give/them/nor/sell/them/for/any/league/ of friendship.

Speaker: Olwë, King of the Teleri at Alqualondë?

/the/work/of/our/hearts/,

Goldberry1 · 12-29-2008, 02:39 AM

The only teensy word that's wrong is the "of" before friendship. Speaker and everything else looks good!

***Varnafindë*** · 12-29-2008, 06:11 AM

"league or friendship" then - makes more sense, too ...

***Valandil*** · 12-29-2008, 10:14 AM

"We renounce no friendship. But it may be the part of a friend
to rebuke a friend's folly. And when the Noldor welcomed us and gave us aid, otherwise then you spoke:
in the land of Aman we were to dwell for ever,

But as for our white /_h_p_/:
those you gave us not. We /_e_r_e_/ not that /_r_f_/ from the Noldor,
but from the /_o_d_/ of the /_e_/;
and the white /_i_b_r_/ we wrought with our own hands,
and the white /_a_l_/ were woven by our wives and our daughters.
Therefore we will neither give them nor sell them for any league or friendship.
For I say to you, Feanor son of Finwe,
these are to us as are the gems to the Noldor:
the work of our hearts, whose like we shall not make again."

Goldberry1 · 12-29-2008, 11:22 AM

Looks good!

***Varnafindë*** · 12-29-2008, 03:10 PM

But as for our white /ships/:
those you gave us not. We /learned/ not that /craft/ from the Noldor,
but from the /Lords/ of the /Sea_/;
and the white /_i_b_r_/ we wrought with our own hands,
and the white /sails/ were woven by our wives and our daughters.

Still one word left which I don't get right now ...

Goldberry1 · 12-29-2008, 06:26 PM

Yep, just that last word...
