Merry I knew who it qwas about, but it took me sometime to work out who said it!

This is Gleowine, Theoden's minstrel singing as they raised the funeral mound over Theoden.

Merry it is...Merry!

It's when they are back in the shire dealing with Saruman's southerners.

your turn!

Yes, I guess I should have gotten that one sooner!

I am on the road for the holidays and away from my books, but I'll have a new question up by Tuesday.

Okay, here's an easy one:

"He is a moss-gatherer, and I have been a stone doomed to rolling."
