It was the 'and his glory was spread over the earth' that pointed me away from the helmet/crown.
But... I suppose a little hyperbole sweetens the game.

Thank you, Keith - but you shouldn't have given the answer, really...
The riddle was not solved - and it was a good one, exactly pointing to the Crown. My bad - I have forgotten this description of the Crown in the "Steward and the King". And there was the casket line never explained. And the light was not Elendilmir... |

However, the casket could be a ship, Elendil would have been wearing a Numenorian helmet, and this is an allegorical riddle... Last edited by Keith K : 10-19-2008 at 01:08 AM. |

Something separate. And it yet needs some separate parts in order to function correctly. I mean, sure you could whack some Orc butt with it, but it may well break.

Try this one, too:
Golden stars on hillside laid, Namesake of a pretty maid. |
