But Húrin mourned openly, and he took up his harp to make a song of lamentation; but he could not, and he broke his harp, and going out, he lifted up his hand towards the North,crying: ‘Marrer of Middle-earth, would that I might see you face to face, and mar you as my lord Fingolfin did!’

Oh my Master, let me hold silken fire twined soft and sweet about my fingers – please, I beg of you, gift me your smiles and sighs in hidden bowers where we take our ease; grant me, I plead, skin gilded and lovely beneath my hands, beneath adoring lips that whisper grateful praise of only you whose beauty does all other things eclipse.
–Or forgive, I ask, my temerity: I speak only in love’s sincerity.
