\"Icon Ent and Entwife<\/strong><\/p>\n

ENT.<\/strong> “When Spring unfolds the beechen leaf, and sap is in the bough;
\nWhen light is on the wild-wood stream, and wind is on the brow;
\nWhen stride is long, and breath is deep, and keen the mountain-air,
\nCome back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is fair!”<\/p>\n

ENTWIFE.<\/strong> “When Spring is come to garth and field, and corn is in the blade;
\nWhen blossom like a shining snow is on the orchard laid;
\nWhen shower and Sun upon the Earth with fragrance fill the air,
\nI’ll linger here, and will not come, because my land is fair.”<\/p>\n

ENT.<\/strong> “When Summer lies upon the world, and in a noon of gold
\nBeneath the roof of sleeping leaves the dreams of trees unfold;
\nWhen woodland halls are green and cool, and wind is in the West,
\nCome back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is best!”<\/p>\n

ENTWIFE.<\/strong> “When Summer warms the hanging fruit and burns the berry brown;
\nWhen straw is gold, and ear is white, and harvest comes to town;
\nWhen honey spills, and apple swells, though wind be in the West,
\nI’ll linger here beneath the Sun, because my land is best!”
\n
\nENT.<\/strong> “When Winter comes, the winter wild that hill and wood shall slay;
\nWhen trees shall fall and starless night devour the sunless day;
\nWhen wind is in the deadly East, then in the bitter rain
\nI’ll look for thee, and call to thee; I’ll come to thee again!”
\n
\nENTWIFE.<\/strong> “When Winter comes, and singing ends; when darkness falls at last;
\nWhen broken is the barren bough, and light and labour past;
\nI’ll look for thee, and wait for thee, until we meet again:
\nTogether we will take the road beneath the bitter rain!”<\/p>\n

BOTH.<\/strong> “Together we will take the road that leads into the West,
\nAnd far away will find a land where both our hearts may rest.”<\/p>\n

– J.R.R. Tolkien <\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
