:53:03
Well, take care.
:53:07
Bring back any old songs
and tales you hear.
:53:17
''I sit beside the fire
:53:21
''And think of all that I have seen.''
:53:26
Our only hope is in speedand secrecy.
:53:29
The Company of the Ring shall be nine.
:53:31
Nine walkers against
the nine Riders ofMordor.
:53:37
With Sam and Frodo, Gandalf will go.
:53:41
For the other Free Peoples...
:53:43
...Legolas shall be for the Elves...
:53:45
...and Gimli, son ofGloin, for the Dwarves.
:53:50
For Men shall go the valiant
Boromir ofGondor...
:53:54
...and Aragorn, son ofArathorn.
:53:57
And for the last twoplaces,
we will trust to friendship...
:54:00
...rather than to great wisdom.
:54:02
Peregrin Took andMeriadoc Brandybuck
may also go.
:54:13
When did you ever know such a storm,
so far south?
:54:17
The Dark Lord's arm has grown long
:54:19
...if he can hurl snow at us
all the way from Mordor.
:54:24
His arm has grown long.
:54:41
No, Gandalf, not that dark way, I beg you!
:54:44
And what would you suggest?
:54:46
Returning to Rivendell to wait there
for the end? We have no choice, Aragorn!
:54:50
We might go by way of the Gap of Rohan.
:54:52
That'd take the Ring too close to Isengard
and Saruman. We dare not risk it.
:54:57
Yet you would risk the mines of Moria.
