“Thus Huan spake, who never before
had uttered words, and but twice more
did speak in elven tongue again;
'Lady beloved, whom all Men,
who Elfinesse, and whom all things
with fur and fell and feathered wings
should serve and love - arise! away!
Put on thy cloak! Before the day
comes over Nargothrond we fly
to Northern perils, thou and I.'
And ere he ceased he counsel wrought
for achievement of the thing they sought.
There Lúthien listened in amaze,
and softly on Huan did she gaze.
Her arms about his neck she cast -
In friendship that to death should last.”
