On this day....

'At length they came to Weathertop;...'
The Return of the King, Homeward Bound

and the year before....

'Their piercing cries were drowned in the roaring of the river.....Frodo felt himself falling....He heard and saw no more.'

Reading Group meeting 8/10/05

On this day....

'...the days went quickly by; for they rode at leisure....the leaves were red and yellow in the autumn sun....'
The Return of the King, Homeward Bound

...and the year before....

'The land before them slopped away southwards, but it was wild and pathless;....the grass was scanty, coarse, and grey; and the leaves in the thickets were faded and falling. It was a cheerless land, and their journey was slow and gloomy.'

The Fellowship of the Ring, Flight to the Ford
