pe eS a aw a i Bue Maar Crea ie ke aa ee ee ee tear over the misty mountains cold To dungeons deep and caverns old We must away ere break of day To seek the pale enchanted gold The dwarves of yore made mighty spells, While barnmers fell like ringing bells In places deep, where dark things slep, Tn hollow balls beneath the fells. For ancient king and elvsh lord There many a gleaming golden board They shaped and wrought, and light they caught To hide in gems on bilt of sword. On silver necklaces they strung The flowering stars, on crowns they bung The dragon-fire, in twisted wire They meshed the light of moon and sun. Far over the misty mountains cold To dungeons deep and caverns old We must away, ere break of day, To claim our long-forgotten gold. —JR.R.
