Fair Lady Goldberry

by J. R. R. Tolkien

J. R. R. Tolkien

O slender as a willow-wand! O clearer than clear water!
O reed by the living pool! Fair River-daughter!
O spring-time and summer-time, and spring again after!
O wind on the waterfall, and the leaves' laughter!

    On Understanding
    by Patience Worth
    Touched with compassion am I at the hour's agony, Knowing well the folly of anguish, Taking in the fulness of the empty phantoms Which man mourneth o'er.
