the pyre of denethor (rotk chapter vii)
TRANSCRIPT
The Pyre of Denenthor
Myles Stevens
A Father’s Loss
A Son Betrayed
Where is your son, Faramir?
He lies within, burning, already burning
Gandalf thrust forward, with Beregond and Pippin behind him, while Denethor gave back until he stood beside the table within.
There they found Faramir, still dreaming in his fever, lying upon the table.
He will not wake again, battle is in vain
Come hither! Come, if you are not all recreant!
