Ents

When the world was young they walked this earth

Singing songs and full of mirth

Sprung from shoots, come out of the ground,

Once tree herds they were renowned

But these Ents are now no more

Remembered only in ancient lore

For, alas for their sad plight,

The Entwives vanished on dark night

And Fangorn forest where they did dwell

Was attacked by Saruman and other things fell

And gradually through these ages long

Less and less was heard their song

And now our world has come to be

And they are but a memory
