Lore Masters' Quote Game - Part 1 - Page 11

This is what's correct:

"Counsel cunning-wise,
O king! Yet if mine eyes
lost not their power, 'twere well for thee
that _e_e_ /f_i_e_/his errantry.
Well _o_/ t_e_, but _o_/ thy/ _h_l_/
a /_a_k/_o_m/and a /_a_d_r_n_/w_l_."

***Varnafindë*** · 08-08-2008, 07:06 AM

Well for thee, but for thy

***Earniel*** · 08-08-2008, 07:52 AM

correct.

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 08-08-2008, 08:36 AM

'but for thy child a dark doom'

***Varnafindë*** · 08-08-2008, 09:36 AM

and a wandering wild.

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 08-08-2008, 01:51 PM

Incorporating all above guesses plus a couple of my own:

"Counsel cunning-wise,
O king! Yet if mine eyes
lost not their power, 'twere well for thee
that Beren failed his errantry.
Well for thee, but for thy child
a dark doom and a wandering wild."

~Melian

***Earniel*** · 08-08-2008, 02:45 PM

All correct. Was there anything else that needed to be guessed in this game? Otherwise, it's your turn, Dread.

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 08-08-2008, 04:19 PM

I probably won't be able to post a new one until Monday. If anyone else wants to play over the weekend, I forfeit my turn. If nothing new is up by Monday, I'll add a quote then.

Mostly correct so far. What is correct is below:

birds, flowers, and 'and tarry not' are correct. Other new guesses are not.
