For this ring was like to twin serpents, whose eyes were
[url=http://www.savemalls.com/products/Shoes-c10_p1.html] wholesale shoes china [/url] emeralds, and their
heads met beneath a crown of golden flowers, that the one upheld and the other devoured; that was the badge
of Finarfin and his house; Then Melian leaned to Thingol's side, and in whispered counsel bade him forgo his
wrath. 'For not by you,' she said, 'shall Beren be slain; and far and free does his fate led him in the end,
yet it is wound with yours. Take heed!'
But Thingol looked in silence upon Lъthien; and he thought in his heart: 'Unhappy Men, children of little
lords and brief kings, shall such as these lay hands on you, and yet live?' Then breaking the silence he
said: 'I see the ring, son of Barahir, and I perceive that you are proud, and deem yourself mighty. But a
father's deeds, even had his service been rendered to me, avail not to win the daughter of Thingol and
Melian. See now! I too desire a treasure that is

rock and steel and the fires of Morgoth keep the jewel that I would possess against all the powers of the
Elf-kingdoms. Yet I hear you say that bonds such as these do not daunt you. Go your way therefore! Bring to
me in your hand a Silmaril from Morgoth's crown; and then, if she will, Lъthien may set her hand in yours.
Then you shall have my jewel; and though the fate of Arda lie within the Silmarils, yet you shall hold me
generous.'
Thus he wrought the doom of Doriath, and was ensnared within the curse of Mandos. And those that heard these
words perceived that Thingol would save his oath, and yet send Beren to his death; for they know that not all
the power of the Noldor, before the Siege was broken, had availed even to see from afar the shining Silmarils
of Fлanor. For they were set in the Iron Crown, and treasured in Angband above all wealth; and Balrogs were
about them, and [url=http://www.savemalls.com/]coach purses outlet[/url]countless swords, and strong bars,
and unassailable walls, and the dark majesty of Morgoth.
But Beren laughed. 'For little price,' he said, 'do Elven-kings sell their daughters: for gems, and things
made by craft. But if this be your will, Thingol, I will perform it. And when we meet again my hand shall
hold a Silmaril from the Iron Crown; for you have not looked the last upon Beren son of Barahir.' Then he
looked in the eyes of Melian, who spoke not; and he bade farewell to Lъthien Tinъviel, and bowing before
Thingol and Melian he put aside the guards about him, and departed from Menegroth alone.
Then at last Melian spoke, and she said to Thingol: 'O King, you have devised cunning counsel. But if my eyes
have not lost their sight, it is ill for you, whether Beren fail in his errand, or achieve it. For you have
doom either your daughter, or yourself. And now is Doriath drawn within the fate of a mightier realm.' But
Thingol answered: 'I sell not to Elves or Men those whom I love and
