...of course thou might join us.
1:32:03
Mr. Frodo.
1:32:04
We cannot be parted.
1:32:07
But, must I go, too?
1:32:10
Nay, dear Sam.
1:32:12
You are still young in spirit.
1:32:14
You and Merry and Pippin.
1:32:17
A good life awaits you back in the Shire.
1:32:20
With plump Hobbit wives...
1:32:22
...good Hobbit meals...
1:32:24
...long leisurely smokings
of good Hobbit pipes.

1:32:29
And laps filled
with bouncing Hobbit babies.

1:32:33
Now you must keep the book
of the Hobbits up to date.

1:32:39
I will.
1:32:41
The Orcs and Trolls have gone to dust...
1:32:45
...the Elves are slowly departing.
1:32:48
Dwarves have disappeared
into their misty mountains...

1:32:52
...and there have been no dragons for ages.
1:32:55
Right!
1:32:58
What troubles you, Sam?
1:33:00
Will there be no room for Hobbits
in this new age of Man?

1:33:04
I think so. For of us all,
Hobbits are the closest to Man...

1:33:09
...the most human.
1:33:10
And one day they will be as Men are.
1:33:13
Look you.
1:33:15
Frodo is a bit larger than Bilbo,
just as you are larger than Frodo.

1:33:20
And younger still than you,
and larger are Merry and Pippin.

1:33:25
And, if you keep the book
of the Hobbits as Frodo asked...

1:33:29
...ages from now,
when your stories are still told...

1:33:32
...there will be those humans who might
well wonder, "Is there Hobbit in me?"

1:33:39
Is there?
1:33:42
"Roads go ever, ever on
1:33:48
"To the lands beyond the sea
1:33:55
"On a white ship will I sail
