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!

Behold your Music! This is your . . . and each of you shall find . . . that I set before you . . . than he himself . . . And thou, Melkor, wilt . . .

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. "Behold your Music! This is your /_i_s_r_l_y/;/ and each of you shall find /c_n_a_n_d/_e_e_n/,/ _m_d/_h_/d_s_g_/that I set before you, /_l_/t_o_e/t_i_g_/w_i_h/_t/_a_/s_e_/t_a_/ he himself _e_i_e_/o_/a_d_d/. And thou, Melkor, wilt /d_s_o_e_/a_l/_h_/s_c_e_/t_o_g_t_/o_/t_y/_i_d/,/_n_/ w_l_/p_r_e_v_/t_a_/t_e_/a_e/_u_/a/_a_t/_f/_h_/w_o_e/_n_/t_i_u_a_y/_o/_t_/g_o_y/./" 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. 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.

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?

'desired' is wrong - the only word left now.
Everything else is correct.

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