had uttered words, and but twice more
did speak in elven tongue again;

who Elfinesse, and whom all things
with fur and fell and feathered wings
should serve and love - arise! away!
Put on thy cloak! Before the day
comes over Nargothrond we fly
to Northern perils, thou and I.'

for achievement of the thing they sought.
There Lúthien listened in amaze,
and softly on Huan did she gaze.
Her arms about his neck she cast -
In friendship that to death should last.”
