A Elbereth Gilthoniel 238

A Elbereth Gilthoniel (another poem) 729

A! Elbereth Gilthoniel! 1028

Ai! laurië lantar lassi súrinen! 377–8

Alive without breath 621

All that is gold does not glitter 170, 247

Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! 838

Arise now, arise, Riders of Théoden! 517

Cold be hand and heart and bone 141

Cold hard lands, The 620

Eärendil was a mariner 233–6

Elven-maid there was of old, An 339–41

Ents the earthborn, old as mountains 586

Ere iron was found or was hewn 544

Faithful servant yet master’s bane 845

Farewell we call to hearth and hall! 106

From dark Dunharrow in the dim morning 803

Get out, you old Wight! Vanish in the sunlight! 142

Gil-galad was an Elven-king 185

Gondor! Gondor, between the Mountains and the Sea! 423

Grey as a mouse 646

Hey! Come derry dol! Hop along, my hearties! 122

Hey! Come merry dol! derry dol! My darling! 119

Hey dol! merry dol! ring a dong dillo! 119

Hey! now! Come hoy now! Whither do you wander? 144

Ho! Ho! Ho! to the bottle I go 90

Ho! Tom Bombadil, Tom Bombadillo! 134, 142

Hop along, my little friends, up the Withywindle! 121

I had an errand there: gathering waterlilies 126

I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew 372–3

I sit beside the fire and think 278–9

In Dwimordene, in Lórien 514

In the willow-meads of Tasarinan I walked in the Spring 469

In western lands beneath the Sun 908–9

Learn now the lore of Living Creatures! 464

Leaves were long, the grass was green, The 191–3

Legolas Greenleaf long under tree 503

Long live the Halflings! Praise them with great praise! 953

Mourn not overmuch! Mighty was the fallen 843

Now let the song begin! Let us sing together 122

O Orofarnë, Lassemista, Carnimírië! 483–4

O slender as a willow-wand! O clearer than clear water! 124

O! Wanderers in the shadowed land 112

Old Tom Bombadil is a merry fellow 124, 142

Out of doubt, out of dark to the day’s rising 847

Out of doubt, out of dark, to the day’s rising 976

Over the land there lies a long shadow 781

Road goes ever on and on, The (three poems) 35, 73, 987

Seek for the Sword that was broken 246

Silver flow the streams from Celos to Erui 875

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day 101

Sing now, ye people of the Tower of Anor 963

Snow-white! Snow-white! O Lady clear! 79

Still round the corner there may wait 1028

Tall ships and tall kings 597

There is an inn, a merry old inn 158–60

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky 50

Through Rohan over fen and field where the long grass grows 417–18

To Isengard! Though Isengard be ringed and barred with doors of stone 485

To the Sea, to the Sea! The white gulls are crying 956

Tom’s country ends here: he will not pass the borders 148

Troll sat alone on his seat of stone 206–8

Upon the hearth the fire is red 77

Wake now my merry lads! Wake and hear me calling! 143

We come, we come with horn and drum: ta-runa runa runa rom! 484

We come, we come with roll of drum: tarunda runda runda rom! 484

We heard of the horns in the hills ringing 849

When evening in the Shire was grey 359–60

When the black breath blows 865

When winter first begins to bite 273

Where now are the Dúnedain, Elessar, Elessar? 503

Where now the horse and the rider?

Where is the horn that was blowing? 508

World was young, the mountains green, The 315–17
