4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

"It may be that he feared him little, for he had as yet no proof of the swords of the Noldor; and soon it was seen that he purposed to drive them back into the sea."

Have you ever listened to it read aloud? There's a wonderful version of The Silmarillion on audiobook, read by Martin Shaw. Its rich and melodic and has the cadence of oral tradition. Beautiful. I highly recommend purchasing the CD set when you get the chance.
