I realise I've treated something as two words that was really just one.

So there's half a word left besides the speaker.

"elf-" is correct: quote is done.

But Gandalf it is not.

"always" alone.
"meet also, so that we took"?

Together you've got the first three lines all correct

Ulmo in the 4th line is wrong
high in the 5th line is wrong
kind who in the 6th line are wrong

Not bad!

"But dost thou not now remember, Kementari, that thy thought
sang not always alone? Did not thy thought and mine meet also,
so that we took wing together like great birds that soar above
the clouds? That also shall come to be by the seed of Iluvatar,
and before the children awake there shall go forth with kings
like the /_i_d/ the Eagles of the woods of the West."

Doesn't exactly sound right altogether, but maybe I slipped a few more correct words in on you.

Oops - more likely, '...with wings like the wind...'

Quite a few more correct words, indeed!
And you're right about wings rather than kings

Still, 'seed' in line 4 is wrong, and 'woods' in line 6 is wrong.

So we're down to:
"But dost thou not now remember, Kementari, that thy thought
sang not always alone? Did not thy thought and mine meet also,
so that we took wing together like great birds that soar above
the clouds? That also shall come to be by the /_e_d/ of Iluvatar,
and before the children awake there shall go forth with wings
like the wind the Eagles of the /_o_d_/ of the West."

And then we need the speaker.

deed of Iluvatar?
(on that same note, foods? goods? moods? of the west... Just being silly, I know.)

Lords of the West?

'deed' is not correct - but 'Lords of the West' is correct
