'you' instead of 'now'

And shouldn't it be 'the house of Eorl' rather than 'the horse of Eorl'?

Edit:
Don't forget the last post on the previous page.

Oops - yes, I misread that. 'House' of Eorl.

Other new solves by Varna & CC are all correct. I'll leave it to one of you players to post the updated, if you like.

"This is grievous. And yet it is good
beyond all that I dared hope in the dark days,
when it seemed that the house of Eorl was
sunk/_n/_o_o_r/less than any shepherd's/_o_/.
And what of the king's/_s_u_r_/,/the/Halfling/?
Eomer, you shall make him a knight of the
Riddermark, for he is valiant!"

shepherd's cot?

the king's esquire?

'cot' and 'esquire' are correct. Need 2 more words and speaker.

I think it's Eowyn, but I thought that missing word was "squalor", but it doesn't match up ... ?

CC's 'in' is correct - and Rian is correct that Eowyn was the speaker.

Just one word left.

Do you need a European used to British spelling to suggest that the missing word could be "honour"?

That's probably what it would take. 'Honour' is correct - your turn, Varanfinde!

Oh, that's right - I was looking for a "negative" word to go with "sunk", but it's the other way around!

First missing from Gwai's - minstrilry?

Wow, we get the speaker in the first post!
Eru Iluvatar indeed, Gwai!

And most of your other entries are correct as well, apart from "than" (while "he himself" is correct).

Rian - not quite, but you're not very far off.

Edit:
I might not be online much over the weekend - perhaps - so you may be left to your own devices for a while ...

amid the design,
all those things which it was seen that...or added.

CC's "was seen" are wrong - otherwise all correct from both of you.

"Behold your Music! This is your minstrelsy; and each of you shall find /c_n_a_n_d/_e_e_n/,/ amid the design that I set before you, all those things which it /_a_/s_e_/ that he himself /_e_i_e_/ or added. And thou, Melkor, wilt discover all the secret thoughts of thy mind, and wilt perceive they are but a part of the whole and tributary to its glory."

'contained herein' - 'desired' ?

'may seem' ? for the smaller words?

Everything else is correct.

I like Midge's devised, but if not, 'decided'?
