5 " Но имало един, който завиждал на тая почит и завистта му растяла с възмъжаването на Турин; наричал се Саерос, син Итилборов. Той бил от ония Нандори, дето намерили убежище в Дориат след гибелта на своя владетел Денетор върху хълма Амон Ереб по време на Първата белериандска битка [...] и нямало дружба между тях и хората. [...] Саерос обаче дълго живял в Менегрот и спечелил уважението на краля, а по нрав бил горделив и се отнасял високомерно с всички които смятал за по-ниски по ранг и заслуги от него. Сприятелил се с песнопоеца Даерон, понеже сам бил надарен певец, ала хората не му допадали, а най-силна неприязън изпитвал към рода на Берен Ерхамион. "

8 " I am in too great doubt to rule. To prepare or to let be? To prepare for war, which is yet only guessed: train craftsmen and tillers in the midst of peace for bloodspilling and battle: put iron in the hands of greedy captains who will love only conquest, and count the slain as their glory? Will they say to Eru: "At least your enemies were amongst them?" Or to fold hands, while friends die unjustly: let men live in blind peace, until the ravisher is at the gate? What then will they do: match naked hands against iron and die in vain, or flee leaving the cries of women behind them? Will they say to Eru: "At least I spilled no blood?"
