Suddenly the Balrog drew itself up to a great heighth, and its wings were spread
from wall to wall. |
From out of the shadow, a red sword leaped flaming.
Glamdring glittered white in answer. |

There was a ringing clash and a stag of white fire. |

As he climbed slowly, Frodo passed many flets. |

"Welcome to Caras Galadhon." |

they burst in stars of blue and green,
or after thunder golden showers
came falling like a rain of flowers

To Legolas she gave a bow such as the Galadhrim used. |
As no Barrow-Downs, here is where Merry and
Pippin got their swords... |
"What are these?" asked Sam. |
Don't you have one more of those glittering swords? |
"And what gift would a Dwarf ask of the Elves?" |
"Lembas" |

Here the Company decided to stay and await the dawn |
"I hoped the river-voyage would beat him, but he is too clever." |
