Rejoice, Sam, for he knows fully well how much that love still encompasses him. | |

I have this image of Frodo as a leaky vessel - but Sam continues to pour in love. I felt all the love you wrapped me in as much as you put your cloak around me when I gave away all else and dared in my despair to be taken. I am clothed in your love and Merry’s and Pippin’s and Bilbo’s, Aragorn’s and Gandalf’s. I am dressed finer than any king. Just so, as St Paul says - over all these [virtues] put on love! | |

*cries* Why do I almost always find myself trying to write a review without any words to describe what I would say? I guess all I can do is write the parts that moved me most: Frodo's description of the fire eating away at him; Sam's memory of how weak they both were and Frodo licking the blood from his own skin so desperate was he for any moisture (especially because blood tastes terrible and is more likely to make you want more water than quench your thirst); Sam's holding Frodo, so afraid his dearest master/friend/brother would slip away but knowing nothing else to do; the tear-smeared "I love yous". Heartbreaking, just heartbreaking. God bless, Galadriel | |
