Ridateci Tolkien, per pietà.

Three rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarfs-lord in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One ring to rule them all, One ring to find them,

Three rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarfs-lord in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One ring to rule them all, One ring to find them,
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

I tried reading this book in middle school and failed miserably.
This book is definitely for those whom are very patient. It can be slow at times, particularly the beginning, but the rewards are worth it. There were some instances were I would be thinking, "Why didn't they put this part in?" or "When do we finally get to this part from the movie?"
For how much I loved this book, I have to say, I wasn't in a hurry to read the second. I truly believe because at times, this book is work to read, like a textbook, and that can be daunting to the casual reader.

This is really one of the greatest epics of all time and it's just great I finally had the chance to read this literary classic. Can't wait to read the rest of Tolkien's works.
