Echoes on the Road
“It was a merry journey with Tom Bombadil trotting gaily beside them, or before them, on Fatty Lumpkin, who could move much faster than his girth promised. Tom sang most of the time, but it was chiefly nonsense, or else perhaps a strange language unknown to hobbits, an ancient language whose words were mainly those of wonder and delight.”
– J.R.R. Tolkien
