The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and Other Verses from the Red Book QUOTES

1 " There is an inn, a merry old inn
beneath an old grey hill,
And there they brew a beer so brown
That the Man in the Moon himself came down
one night to drink his fill. "

― J.R.R. Tolkien , The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and Other Verses from the Red Book

2 " There was a merry passenger,
a messenger, a mariner:
he built a gilded gondola
to wander in, and had in her
a load of yellow oranges
and porridge for his provender;
he perfumed her with marjoram
and cardamom and lavender. "

― J.R.R. Tolkien , The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and Other Verses from the Red Book
