The
hobbits
shuddered
.
Even
in
the
Shire
the
rumour
of
the
Barrow-wights
of
the
Barrow-downs
beyond
the
Forest
had
been
heard
.
But
it
was
not
a
tale
that
any
hobbit
liked
to
listen
to
,
even
by
a
comfortable
fireside
far
away
.
These
four
now
suddenly
remembered
what
the
joy
of
this
house
had
driven
from
their
minds
:
the
house
of
Tom
Bombadil
nestled
under
the
very
shoulder
of
those
dreaded
hils
.
They
lost
the
thread
of
his
tale
and
shifted
uneasily
,
looking
aside
at
one
another
.
When
they
caught
his
words
again
they
found
that
he
had
now
wandered
into
strange
regions
beyond
their
memory
and
beyond
their
waking
thought
,
into
limes
when
the
world
was
wider
,
and
the
seas
flowed
straight
to
the
western
Shore
;
and
still
on
and
back
Tom
went
singing
out
into
ancient
starlight
,
when
only
the
Elf-sires
were
awake
.
Then
suddenly
he
slopped
,
and
they
saw
that
he
nodded
as
if
he
was
faling
asleep
.
The
hobbits
sat
still
before
him
,
enchanted
;
and
it
seemed
as
if
,
under
the
spell
of
his
words
,
the
wind
had
gone
,
and
the
clouds
had
dried
up
,
and
the
day
had
been
withdrawn
,
and
darkness
had
come
from
East
and
West
,
and
all
the
sky
was
filed
with
the
light
of
white
stars
.

Whether
the
morning
and
evening
of
one
day
or
of
many
days
had
passed
Frodo
could
not
tel.
.
He
did
not
feel
either
hungry
or
tired
,
only
filed
with
wonder
.
The
stars
shone
through
the
window
and
the
silence
of
the
heavens
seemed
to
be
round
him
.
He
spoke
at
last
out
of
his
wonder
and
a
sudden
fear
of
that
silence
:
"
Who
are
you
,
Master
?
"
he
asked
.
"
Eh
,
what
?
"
said
Tom
sitting
up
,
and
his
eyes
glinting
in
the
gloom
.
"
Do
n't
you
know
my
name
yet
?
That
's
the
only
answer
.
Tell
me
,
who
are
you
,
alone
,
yourself
and
nameless
?
But
you
are
young
and
I
am
old
.
Eldest
,
that
's
what
I
am
.
Mark
my
words
,
my
friends
:
Tom
was
here
before
the
river
and
the
trees
;
Tom
remembers
the
first
raindrop
and
the
first
acorn
.
He
made
paths
before
the
Big
People
,
and
saw
the
little
People
arriving
.
He
was
here
before
the
Kings
and
the
graves
and
the
Barrow-wights
.
When
the
Elves
passed
westward
,
Tom
was
here
already
,
before
the
seas
were
bent
.
He
knew
the
dark
under
the
stars
when
it
was
fearless
-
before
the
Dark
Lord
came
from
Outside
.
"
A
shadow
seemed
to
pass
by
the
window
,
and
the
hobbits
glanced
hastily
through
the
panes
.
When
they
turned
again
,
Goldberry
stood
in
the
door
behind
,
framed
in
light
.
She
held
a
candle
,
shielding
its
flame
from
the
draught
with
her
hand
;
and
the
light
flowed
through
it
,
like
sunlight
through
a
white
shell
.

"
The
rain
has
ended
,
"
she
said
;
'
and
new
waters
are
running
downhil
,
under
the
stars
.
Let
us
now
laugh
and
be
glad
!
"
"
And
let
us
have
food
and
drink
!
"
cried
Tom
.
"
Long
tales
are
thirsty
.
And
long
listening
's
hungry
work
,
morning
,
noon
,
and
evening
!
"
With
that
he
jumped
out
of
his
chair
,
and
with
a
bound
took
a
candle
from
the
chimney-shelf
and
lit
it
in
the
flame
that
Goldberry
held
;
then
he
danced
about
the
table
.
Suddenly
he
hopped
through
the
door
and
disappeared
.
Quickly
he
returned
,
bearing
a
large
and
laden
tray
.
Then
Tom
and
Goldberry
set
the
table
;
and
the
hobbits
sat
half
in
wonder
and
half
in
laughter
:
so
fair
was
the
grace
of
Goldberry
and
so
merry
and
odd
the
caperings
of
Tom
.
Yet
in
some
fashion
they
seemed
to
weave
a
single
dance
,
neither
hindering
the
other
,
in
and
out
of
the
room
,
and
round
about
the
table
;
and
with
great
speed
food
and
vessels
and
lights
were
set
in
order
.
The
boards
blazed
with
candles
,
white
and
yelow
.
Tom
bowed
to
his
guests
.
"
Supper
is
ready
,
"
said
Goldberry
;
and
now
the
hobbits
saw
that
she
was
clothed
all
in
silver
with
a
white
girdle
,
and
her
shoes
were
like
fishes
'
mail
.
But
Tom
was
all
in
clean
blue
,
blue
as
rain-washed
forget-me-nots
,
and
he
had
green
stockings
.
