Elrond

commanded

it

,

"

answered

Gandalf

.

"

The

river

of

this

valley

is

under

his

power

,

and

it

will

rise

in

anger

when

he

has

great

need

to

bar

the

Ford

.

As

soon

as

the

captain

of

the

Ringwraiths

rode

into

the

water

the

flood

was

released

.

If

I

may

say

so

,

I

added

a

few

touches

of

my

own

:

you

may

not

have

noticed

,

but

some

of

the

waves

took

the

form

of

great

white

horses

with

shining

white

riders

;

and

there

were

many

rolling

and

grinding

boulders

.

For

a

moment

I

was

afraid

that

we

had

let

loose

too

fierce

a

wrath

,

and

the

flood

would

get

out

of

hand

and

wash

you

all

away

.

There

is

great

vigour

in

the

waters

that

come

down

from

the

snows

of

the

Misty

Mountains

.

"

"

Yes

,

it

all

comes

back

to

me

now

,

"

said

Frodo

:

"

the

tremendous

roaring

.

I

thought

I

was

drowning

,

with

my

friends

and

enemies

and

all

.

But

now

we

are

safe

!

Gandalf

looked

quickly

at

Frodo

,

but

he

had

shut

his

eyes

.

"

Yes

,

you

are

all

safe

for

the

present

.

Soon

there

will

be

feasting

and

merrymaking

to

celebrate

the

victory

at

the

Ford

of

Bruinen

,

and

you

will

all

be

there

in

places

of

honour

.

"

"

Splendid

!

"

said

Frodo

.

"

It

is

wonderful

that

Elrond

,

and

Glorfindel

and

such

great

lords

,

not

to

mention

Strider

,

should

take

so

much

trouble

and

show

me

so

much

kindness

.

"

"

Well

,

there

are

many

reasons

why

they

should

,

"

said

Gandalf

,

smiling

.

"

I

am

one

good

reason

.

The

Ring

is

another

:

you

are

the

Ring-bearer

.

And

you

are

the

heir

of

Bilbo

,

the

Ring-finder

.

"

"

Dear

Bilbo

!

"

said

Frodo

sleepily

.

"

I

wonder

where

he

is

.

I

wish

he

was

here

and

could

hear

all

about

it

.

It

would

have

made

him

laugh

,

The

cow

jumped

over

the

Moon

!

And

the

poor

old

troll

!

"

With

that

he

fell

fast

asleep

.

Frodo

was

now

safe

in

the

Last

Homely

House

east

of

the

Sea

.

That

house

was

,

as

Bilbo

had

long

ago

reported

,

"

a

perfect

house

,

whether

you

like

food

or

sleep

,

or

story-telling

or

singing

,

or

just

sitting

and

thinking

best

,

or

a

pleasant

mixture

of

them

all

'

.

Merely

to

be

there

was

a

cure

for

weariness

,

fear

,

and

sadness

.

As

the

evening

drew

on

,

Frodo

woke

up

again

,

and

he

found

that

he

no

longer

felt

in

need

of

rest

or

sleep

,

but

had

a

mind

for

food

and

drink

,

and

probably

for

singing

and

story-telling

afterwards

.

He

got

out

of

bed

and

discovered

that

his

arm

was

already

nearly

as

useful

again

as

it

ever

had

been

.

He

found

laid

ready

clean

garments

of

green

cloth

that

fitted

him

excellently

.

Looking

in

a

mirror

he

was

startled

to

see

a

much

thinner

reflection

of

himself

than

he

remembered

:

it

looked

remarkably

like

the

young

nephew

of

Bilbo

who

used

to

go

tramping

with

his

uncle

in

the

Shire

;

but

the

eyes

looked

out

at

him

thoughtfully

.
