Now
aforetime
in
the
isle
of
Numenor
the
weather
was
ever
apt
to
the
needs
and
liking
of
Men
:
rain
in
due
season
and
ever
in
measure
;
and
sunshine
,
now
warmer
,
now
cooler
,
and
winds
from
the
sea
.
And
when
the
wind
was
in
the
west
,
it
seemed
to
many
that
it
was
filled
with
a
fragrance
,
fleeting
but
sweet
,
heart
-
stirring
,
as
of
flowers
that
bloom
for
ever
in
undying
meads
and
have
no
names
on
mortal
shores
.
But
all
this
was
now
changed
;
for
the
sky
itself
was
darkened
,
and
there
were
storms
of
rain
and
hail
in
those
days
,
and
violent
winds
;
and
ever
and
anon
a
great
ship
of
the
Numenoreans
would
founder
and
return
not
to
haven
,
though
such
a
grief
had
not
till
then
befallen
them
since
the
rising
of
the
Star
.
And
out
of
the
west
there
would
come
at
times
a
great
cloud
in
the
evening
,
shaped
as
it
were
an
eagle
,
with
pinions
spread
to
the
north
and
the
south
;
and
slowly
it
would
loom
up
,
blotting
out
the
sunset
,
and
then
uttermost
night
would
fall
upon
Numenor
.
And
some
of
the
eagles
bore
lightning
beneath
their
wings
,
and
thunder
echoed
between
sea
and
cloud
.
Then
men
grew
afraid
.
Behold
the
Eagles
of
the
Lords
of
the
West
!
they
cried
.
The
Eagles
of
Manwe
are
come
upon
Numenor
!
And
they
fell
upon
their
faces
.

Then
some
few
would
repent
for
a
season
,
but
others
hardened
their
hearts
,
and
they
shook
their
fists
at
heaven
,
saying
:
The
Lords
of
the
West
have
plotted
against
us
.
They
strike
first
.
The
next
blow
shall
be
ours
!
These
words
the
King
himself
spoke
,
but
they
were
devised
by
Sauron
.
Now
the
lightnings
increased
and
slew
men
upon
the
hills
,
and
in
the
fields
,
and
in
the
streets
of
the
city
;
and
a
fiery
bolt
smote
the
dome
of
the
Temple
and
shore
it
asunder
,
and
it
was
wreathed
in
flame
.
But
the
Temple
itself
was
unshaken
,
and
Sauron
stood
there
upon
the
pinnacle
and
defied
the
lightning
and
was
unharmed
;
and
in
that
hour
men
called
him
a
god
and
did
all
that
he
would
.
When
therefore
the
last
portent
came
they
heeded
it
little
.
For
the
land
shook
under
them
,
and
a
groaning
as
of
thunder
underground
was
mingled
with
the
roaring
of
the
sea
,
and
smoke
issued
from
the
peak
of
the
Meneltarma
.
But
all
the
more
did
Ar
-
Pharazon
press
on
with
his
armament
.
In
that
time
the
fleets
of
the
Numenoreans
darkened
the
sea
upon
the
west
of
the
land
,
and
they
were
like
an
archipelago
of
a
thousand
isles
;
their
masts
were
as
a
forest
upon
the
mountains
,
and
their
sails
like
a
brooding
cloud
;
and
their
banners
were
golden
and
black
.
And
all
things
waited
upon
the
word
of
Ar
-
Pharazon
;
and
Sauron
withdrew
into
the
inmost
circle
of
the
Temple
,
and
men
brought
him
victims
to
be
burned
.
Then
the
Eagles
of
the
Lords
of
the
West
came
up
out
of
the
dayfall
,
and
they
were
arrayed
as
for
battle
,
advancing
in
a
line
the
end
of
which
diminished
beyond
sight
;
and
as
they
came
their
wings
spread
ever
wider
,
grasping
the
sky
.
But
the
West
burned
red
behind
them
,
and
they
glowed
beneath
,
as
though
they
were
lit
with
a
flame
of
great
anger
,
so
that
all
Numenor
was
illumined
as
with
a
smouldering
fire
;
and
men
looked
upon
the
faces
of
their
fellows
,
and
it
seemed
to
them
that
they
were
red
with
wrath
.

Then
Ar
-
Pharazon
hardened
his
heart
,
and
he
went
aboard
his
mighty
ship
,
Alcarondas
,
Castle
of
the
Sea
.
Manyoared
it
was
and
many
-
masted
,
golden
and
sable
;
and
upon
it
the
throne
of
Ar
-
Pharazon
was
set
.
Then
he
did
on
his
panoply
and
his
crown
,
and
let
raise
his
standard
,
and
he
gave
the
signal
for
the
raising
of
the
anchors
;
and
in
that
hour
the
trumpets
of
Numenor
outrang
the
thunder
.
Thus
the
fleets
of
the
Numenoreans
moved
against
the
menace
of
the
West
;
and
there
was
little
wind
,
but
they
had
many
oars
and
many
strong
slaves
to
row
beneath
the
lash
.
The
sun
went
down
,
and
there
came
a
great
silence
.
Darkness
fell
upon
the
land
,
and
the
sea
was
still
,
while
the
world
waited
for
what
should
betide
.
Slowly
the
fleets
passed
out
of
the
sight
of
the
watchers
in
the
havens
,
and
their
lights
faded
,
and
night
took
them
;
and
in
the
morning
they
were
gone
.
For
a
wind
arose
in
the
east
and
it
wafted
them
away
;
and
they
broke
the
Ban
of
the
Valar
,
and
sailed
into
forbidden
seas
,
going
up
with
war
against
the
Deathless
,
to
wrest
from
them
everlasting
life
within
the
Circles
of
the
World
.
