Third time pays for all. I want some herbs. Gollums head peeped out of the fern, but his looks were neither helpful nor friendly. A few bay-leaves, some thyme and sage, will do before the water boils, said Sam. said Gollum. Sme´agol is not pleased. And Sme´agol doesnt like smelly leaves. He doesnt eat grasses or roots, no precious, not till hes starving or very sick, poor Sme´agol. Sme´agolll get into real true hot water, when this water boils, if he dont do as hes asked, growled Sam. Samll put his head in it, yes precious. And Id make him look for turnips and carrots, and taters too, if it was the time o the year. Ill bet theres all sorts of good things running wild in this country. Id give a lot for half a dozen taters. Sme´agol wont go, O no precious, not this time, hissed Gollum. Hes frightened, and hes very tired, and this hobbits not nice, not nice at all. Sme´agol wont grub for roots and carrotses and taters. Whats taters, precious, eh, whats taters. Po ta toes, said Sam. The Gaffers delight, and rare good ballast for an empty belly. But you wont find any, so you neednt look. But be good Sme´agol and fetch me the herbs, and Ill think better of you. Whats more, if you turn over a new leaf, and keep it turned, Ill cook you some taters one of these days. I will: fried O F H ERBS A ND STEWE D RA BBIT 655 fish and chips served by S. Gamgee. You couldnt say no to that. Yes, yes we could. Spoiling nice fish, scorching it. Give me fish now, and keep nassty chips. Oh youre hopeless, said Sam. Go to sleep. In the end he had to find what he wanted for himself; but he did not have to go far, not out of sight of the place where his master lay, still sleeping. For a while Sam sat musing, and tending the fire till the water boiled. The daylight grew and the air became warm; the dew faded off turf and leaf. Soon the rabbits cut up lay simmering in their pans with the bunched herbs. Almost Sam fell asleep as the time went by. He let them stew for close on an hour, testing them now and again with his fork, and tasting the broth. When he thought all was ready he lifted the pans off the fire, and crept along to Frodo. Frodo half opened his eyes as Sam stood over him, and then he wakened from his dreaming: another gentle, unrecoverable dream of peace. Hullo, Sam. he said. Not resting. Is anything wrong. What is the time. About a couple of hours after game android online, said Sam, and nigh on half past eight by Shire clocks, maybe. But nothings wrong. Though it aint quite what Id call right: no stock, no onions, no taters. Ive got a bit of a stew for you, and some broth, Mr. Frodo. Do you good. Youll have to sup it in your mug; or straight from the pan, when its cooled a bit. I havent brought no bowls, nor nothing proper. Frodo yawned and stretched. You should have been resting, Sam, he said. And lighting a fire was dangerous in these parts. But I do feel hungry. Hmm. Can I smell it from here. What have you stewed. A present from Sme´agol, said Sam: a brace o young coneys; though I fancy Gollums regretting them now. But theres naught to go with them but a few herbs. Sam and his master sat just within the fern-brake and ate their stew from the pans, sharing the old fork and spoon. They allowed themselves half a piece of the Elvish waybread each. It seemed a feast. Wheew. Gollum. Sam called and whistled softly. Come on. Still time to change your mind. Theres some left, if you want to try stewed coney. There was no answer. Please click for source well, I suppose hes gone off to find something for himself. Well finish it, said Sam. And then you must take some sleep, said Frodo. Dont you drop off, while Im nodding, Mr. Frodo. I dont feel too sure of him. Theres a good deal of Stinker the bad Gollum, 656 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS if you understand me in him still, and its getting stronger again. Not but what I think hed try to throttle me first now. We dont phrase coc th 5 layout improbable! eye to eye, and hes not pleased with Sam, O no precious, not pleased at all. They finished, and Sam went off to the stream to rinse his gear. As he stood up to return, he looked back up the slope. At that moment he saw the sun rise out of the reek, or haze, or dark shadow, or whatever it was, that lay ever to the east, and it sent its golden beams down upon the trees and glades about him. Then he noticed a thin spiral of blue-grey smoke, plain to see as it caught the sunlight, rising from a thicket above him. With a shock he realized that this was the smoke from his little cooking-fire, which he had neglected to put out. That wont do. Never thought it would show like that. he muttered, and he started to hurry back. Suddenly he halted and listened. Had he heard a whistle or not. Or was it the call of some strange bird. If it was a whistle, it did not come from Frodos direction. There it went again from another place. Sam began to run as well as he could uphill. He found that a small brand, burning away to its outer end, had kindled some fern at the edge of the fire, and the fern blazing up had set the turves smouldering. Hastily he stamped out what was left of the fire, scattered the ashes, and laid the turves on the hole. Then he crept back to Frodo. Did you hear a whistle, and what sounded like an answer. he asked. A few minutes back. I hope it was only continue reading bird, but it didnt sound quite like that: more like somebody mimicking a bird-call, I thought. And Im afraid my bit of fires been smoking. Now if Ive gone and brought trouble, Ill never forgive myself. Nor wont have a chance, maybe. Hush. whispered Frodo. I thought I heard voices. The two hobbits trussed their small packs, put them on ready for flight, and then crawled deeper into the fern. There they crouched listening. There was no doubt of the voices. They were speaking low and furtively, but they were near, and coming nearer. Then quite suddenly one spoke clearly close at hand. Here. Here is where the smoke came from. it said. Twill be nigh at hand. In the fern, no doubt. We shall have it like a coney in a trap. Then we shall learn what kind of thing it is. Aye, and what it knows. said a second voice. At once four men came striding through the fern from different directions. Since flight and hiding were no longer possible, Frodo O F H ERBS A ND STEWE D RA BBIT 657 and Sam sprang to their feet, putting back to back and whipping out their small swords. If they were astonished at what they saw, their captors were even more astonished. Four tall Men stood there. Two had spears in their hands with broad bright heads. Two had great bows, almost of their own height, and great quivers of long green-feathered arrows. All had swords at their sides, and were clad in green and brown of varied hues, as if the better to walk unseen in the glades of Ithilien. Green gauntlets covered their hands, and their faces were hooded and masked with green, except for their eyes, which were very keen and bright. At once Frodo thought of Boromir, for these Men were like him in stature and bearing, and in their manner of speech. We have not found what we sought, said one. But what have we found. Not Orcs, said another, releasing the hilt of his sword, which he had seized when he saw the glitter of Sting in Frodos hand. Elves. said a third, doubtfully. Nay. Not Elves, said the fourth, the tallest, and as it appeared the chief among them. Elves do not walk in Ithilien in these days. And Elves are wondrous fair to look upon, or so tis said. Meaning were not, I take you, said Sam. Thank you kindly. And when youve finished discussing us, perhaps youll say who you are, and why you cant let two tired travellers rest. The tall green man laughed grimly. I am Faramir, Captain of Gondor, he said. But there are no travellers in this land: only the servants of the Dark Tower, or of the White. But we are neither, said Frodo. And travellers we are, whatever Captain Faramir may say. Then make haste to declare yourselves and your errand, said Faramir. We have a work to do, and this is no time or place for riddling or parleying. Come. Where is the third of your company. The third. Yes, the skulking fellow that we saw with his nose in the pool down yonder. He had an ill-favoured look. Some spying breed of Orc, I guess, or a creature of theirs. But he gave us the slip by some fox-trick. I do not know where he is, said Frodo. He is only a chance companion met upon our road, and I am not answerable for him. If you come on him, spare him. Bring him or send him to us. He is only a wretched gangrel creature, but I have him under my care for a while. But as for us, we are Hobbits of the Amazing spider man download for, far to the North and West, beyond many Xbox rts games. Frodo son of Drogo is pc omlet arcade name, and with me is Samwise son of Hamfast, a worthy hobbit in my service. We have come by long ways out of Rivendell, or Imladris as some 658 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS call it. Here Faramir started and grew intent. Seven companions we had: one we lost at Moria, the others we left at Parth Galen above Rauros: two of my kin; a Dwarf there was also, and an Elf, and two Men. They were Aragorn; and Boromir, who said that he came out of Minas Tirith, a city in the South. Boromir. all the four men exclaimed. Boromir son of the Lord Denethor. said Faramir, and a strange stern look came into his face. You came with him. That is news indeed, if it be true. Know, little strangers, that Boromir son of Denethor was High Warden of the White Tower, and our CaptainGeneral: sorely do we miss him. Who are you then, and what had you to do with him. Be swift, for the Sun is climbing. Are the riddling words known to you that Boromir brought to Rivendell. Frodo replied. Seek for the Sword that was Broken. In Imladris it dwells. The words are known indeed, said Faramir in astonishment. It is some token of your truth that you also know them. Aragorn whom I named isthe bearer ofthe Sword that wasBroken, said Frodo. And we are the Halflings that the rhyme spoke of. That I see, said Faramir thoughtfully. Or I see that it might be so. And what is Isildurs Bane. That is hidden, answered Frodo. Doubtless it will be made clear in time. We must learn more of this, said Faramir, and know what brings you so far east under the shadow of yonder-- he pointed and said no name. But not now. We have business in hand. You are in peril, and you would not have gone far by field or road this day. There will be hard handstrokes nigh at hand ere the day is full. Then death, or swift flight back to Anduin. I will leave two to guard you, for your good and for mine. Wise man trusts not to chance-meeting on the road in this land. If I return, I will speak more with you. Farewell. said Frodo, bowing low. Think what you will, I am a friend of all enemies of the One Enemy. We would go see more you, if we halfling folk could hope to serve you, such doughty men and strong as you seem, and if my errand permitted it. May the light shine on your swords. The Halflings are courteous folk, whatever else they be, said Faramir. Farewell. The hobbits sat down again, but they said nothing to one another of their thoughts and doubts. Close by, just under the dappling O F H ERBS A ND STEWE D RA BBIT 659 shadow of the dark bay-trees, two men remained on guard. They took off their masks now and again to cool them, as the day-heat grew, and Frodo saw that they were goodly men, pale-skinned, dark of hair, with grey eyes and faces sad and proud. They spoke together in soft voices, at first using the Common Speech, but after the manner of older days, and then changing to another language of their own. To his amazement, as he listened Frodo became aware that it was the elven-tongue that they spoke, or one but little different; and he looked at them with wonder, for he knew then that they must be Du´nedain of the South, men of the line of the Lords of Westernesse. After a while he spoke to them; but they were slow and cautious in answering. They named themselves Mablung and Damrod, soldiers of Gondor, and they were Rangers of Ithilien; for they were descended from folk who lived in Ithilien at one time, before it was overrun. From such men the Lord Denethor chose his forayers, who crossed the Anduin secretly (how or where, they would not say) to harry the Orcs and other enemies that roamed between the Ephel Du´ ath and the River. It is close on ten leagues hence to the east-shore of Anduin, said Mablung, and we seldom come so far afield. But we have a new errand on this journey: we come to ambush the Men of Harad. Curse them. Aye, curse the Southrons. said Damrod. Tis said that there were dealings of old between Gondor and the kingdoms of the Harad in the Far South; though there was never friendship. In those days our bounds were away south beyond the mouths of Anduin, and Umbar, the nearest of their realms, acknowledged our sway. But that is long since. Tis many lives of Men since any passed to or fro between us. Now of late we have learned that the Enemy has been among them, and they are gone over to Him, or back to Him they were ever ready to His will as have so many also in the East. I doubt not that the days of Gondor are numbered, and the walls of Minas Tirith are doomed, so great is His strength go here malice. But still we will not sit idle and let Him do all as He would, said Mablung. These cursed Southrons come now marching up the ancient roads to swell the hosts of the Dark Tower. Yea, up the very roads that craft of Gondor made. And they go ever more heedlessly, we learn, thinking that the power of their new master is great enough, so that the mere shadow of His hills will protect them. We come to teach them another lesson. Great strength of them was reported to us some days ago, marching north. One of their regiments is due by our reckoning to pass by, some time ere noon up on the road above, where it passes through the cloven way. The road may pass, but they shall not. Not while Faramir is Captain. He leads now in all perilous 660 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS ventures. But his life is charmed, or fate spares him for some other end. Their talk died down into a listening silence. All seemed still and watchful. Sam, crouched by the edge of the fern-brake, peered out. With his keen hobbit-eyes he saw that many more Men were about. He could see them stealing up the slopes, singly or in long files, keeping always to the shade of grove or thicket, or crawling, hardly visible in their brown and green raiment, through grass and brake. All were hooded and masked, and had gauntlets on Xbox rts games hands, and were armed like Faramir and his companions. Before long they had all passed and vanished. The sun rose till it neared the South. The shadows shrank. I wonder Xbox rts games that dratted Gollum is. thought Sam, as he crawled back into deeper shade. He stands a fair chance of being spitted for an Orc, or of being roasted by the Yellow Face. But I fancy hell look after himself. He lay down beside Frodo and began to doze. He woke, thinking that he had heard horns blowing. He sat up. It was now high steamtrades. The guards stood alert and tense in the shadow of the trees. Suddenly the horns rang out louder and beyond mistake from above, over the top of the slope. Sam thought that he heard cries and wild shouting also, but the sound was faint, as if it came out of some distant cave. Then presently the noise of fighting broke out near at hand, just above their hiding-place. He could hear plainly the ringing grate of steel on steel, the clang of sword on iron cap, the dull beat of blade on shield; men were yelling and screaming, and one clear loud voice was calling Gondor. Gondor. It sounds like a hundred blacksmiths all smithying together, said Sam to Frodo. Theyre as near as I want them now. But the noise grew closer. They are coming. cried Damrod. See. Some of the Southrons have broken from the trap and are flying from the road. There they go. Our men after them, and the Captain leading. Sam, eager to see more, went now and joined the guards. He scrambled a little way up into one of the larger of the bay-trees. For a moment he caught a glimpse of swarthy men in red running down the slope some way off with green-clad warriors leaping after them, hewing them down as they fled. Arrows were thick in the air. Then suddenly straight over the rim of their sheltering bank, a man fell, crashing through the slender trees, nearly on top of them. He came to rest in the fern a few feet away, face downward, green arrow-feathers sticking from his neck below a golden collar. His scarlet robes were O F H ERBS A ND STEWE D RA BBIT 661 tattered, his corslet of overlapping brazen plates was rent and hewn, his black plaits of hair braided with gold were drenched with blood. His brown hand still clutched the hilt of a broken sword. It was Sams first view of a battle of Men against Men, and he did not like it much. He was glad that he could not see the dead face. He wondered what the mans name was and where he came from; and if he was really evil of heart, or what lies or threats had led him on the long march from his home; and if he would not really rather have stayed there in peace all in a flash of thought which was quickly driven from his mind.
As you will, said Frodo. Even the Elves do likewise at need, and blindfolded we crossed the borders of fair Lothlo´rien. Gimli the dwarf took it ill, but the hobbits endured it. It is to no place so fair that I shall lead you, said Faramir. But I am glad that you will take this willingly and not by force. He called softly and immediately Mablung and Damrod stepped out of the trees and that european war 5 suggest back to him. Blindfold these guests, said Faramir. Securely, but not so as to discomfort them. Do not tie their hands. They will Red dead redemption 1 pc their word not to try and see. I could trust them to shut their eyes of their own accord, but eyes will blink, if the feet stumble. Lead them so that they do not falter. With green scarves the two guards now bound up the hobbits eyes, and drew their hoods down almost to their mouths; then quickly they took each one by the hand and went on their way. All that Frodo and Sam knew of this last mile of the road they learned from guessing in the dark. After a little they found that they were on a path descending steeply; soon it grew so narrow that they went in single file, brushing a stony wall on either side; their guards steered them from behind with hands laid firmly on their shoulders. Now and again they came to rough places and were lifted from their feet for a while, and then set down again. Always the noise of the running water was on their right hand, and it grew nearer and louder. At length they were halted. Quickly Mablung and Damrod turned them about, several times, and they lost all sense of direction. They climbed upwards a little: it seemed cold and the noise of the stream had become faint. Then they were picked up and carried down, down many steps, and round a corner. Suddenly they heard the water again, best online mobile now, rushing and splashing. All round them it seemed, and they felt a fine rain on their hands and cheeks. At last they were set on their feet once more. For a moment they stood so, half fearful, blindfold, not knowing where they were; and no one spoke. 674 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS Then came the voice of Faramir close behind. Let them see. he said. The scarves were removed and their hoods drawn back, and they blinked and gasped. They stood on a wet floor of polished stone, the doorstep, very strategy & tactics where it were, of a rough-hewn gate of rock opening dark behind them. But in front a thin veil of water was hung, so near that Frodo could have put an outstretched arm into it. Red dead redemption 1 pc faced westward. The level shafts of the setting sun behind beat upon it, and the red light was broken into many flickering beams of ever-changing colour. It was as if they pcgame at the window of some elven-tower, curtained with threaded jewels of silver and gold, and ruby, sapphire and amethyst, all kindled with an unconsuming fire. At least by good chance we came at the right hour to reward you for your patience, said Faramir. This is the Window of the Sunset, Henneth Annuˆn, fairest of all the falls of Ithilien, land of many fountains. Few strangers have ever seen it. But there is no kingly hall behind to match it. Enter now and see. Even as he spoke the sun sank, and the fire faded in the flowing water. They turned learn more here passed under the low forbidding arch. At once they found themselves in a rock-chamber, wide and rough, with an uneven stooping roof. A few torches were kindled and cast a dim light on the glistening walls. Many men were already there. Others were still coming in by twos and threes through a dark narrow door on one side. As their eyes grew accustomed to the gloom the hobbits Red dead redemption 1 pc that the cave was larger than they had guessed and was filled with great store of arms and victuals. Well, here is our refuge, said Faramir. Not a place of great ease, but here you may pass the night in peace. It is dry at least, and there is food, though no fire. At one time the water flowed down through this cave and out of the arch, but its course was changed further up the gorge, by workmen of old, and the stream sent down in a fall of doubled height over the rocks far above. All the ways into this grot were then sealed against the entry of water or aught else, all save one. There are now but two ways out: that passage yonder by which you entered blindfold, and through the Window-curtain into a deep bowl filled with knives of stone. Now rest a while, until the evening meal is set. The hobbits were taken to a corner and given a low bed to lie on, if they wished. Meanwhile men busied themselves about the cave, quietly and in orderly quickness. Light tables were taken from the walls and set up on trestles and laden with gear. This was plain and unadorned for the most part, but all well and fairly made: round T HE WI N DOW O N TH E WEST 675 platters, bowls and dishes of glazed brown clay or turned box-wood, smooth and clean. Here and there was a cup or basin of polished bronze; and a goblet of plain silver was set by the Captains seat in the middle of the inmost table. Faramir went about among the men, questioning each as he came in, in a soft voice. Some came back from the pursuit of the Southrons; others, left behind as scouts near the road, came in latest. All the Southrons had been accounted for, save only the great muˆmak: what happened to read article none could say. Of the enemy no movement could be seen; not even an orc-spy was Red dead redemption 1 pc. You saw and heard nothing, Anborn. Faramir asked of the latest comer. Well, no, lord, said the man. No Orc at least. But I saw, or thought I saw, something a little strange. It was getting deep dusk, when the eyes make things greater than they should be. So perhaps it may have been no more than a squirrel. Sam pricked up his ears at this. Yet if so, it was a black squirrel, and I saw no tail. Twas like a shadow on the ground, and it whisked behind a tree-trunk when I drew nigh and went up aloft as swift as any squirrel could. You will not have us slay wild beasts for no purpose, and it seemed no more, so I tried no arrow. It was too dark for sure shooting anyway, and the creature was gone into the gloom of the leaves in a twinkling. But I stayed for a while, for it seemed strange, and then I hastened back. I thought I heard the thing Red dead redemption 1 pc at me from high above as I turned away. A large squirrel, maybe. Perhaps under the shadow of the Unnamed some of the beasts of Mirkwood are wandering hither to our mail https ru pc games. They have black squirrels there, tis said. Perhaps, said Faramir. But old clash of would be an ill omen, if it were so. We do not want the escapes of Mirkwood in Ithilien. Sam fancied that he gave a swift glance towards the hobbits as he spoke; but Sam said nothing. For a while he and Frodo lay back and watched the torchlight, and the men moving to and fro speaking in hushed voices. Then suddenly Frodo fell asleep. Sam struggled with himself, arguing this way and that. He may be all right, he thought, and then he may not.
