1 Praise for Faramir

Brave captain and loyal son

Man of Gondor in glorious plight

There are so few -

Whose heart does not falter and yield

To the seduction, temptation of the One that rules.

His love for Eowyn

Should be in a song

In the sweetest of language

To the most delightful of notes

Of a bidden door that opened and emitted rainbow light.

Wizard-like air, it is said,

Whose thoughts runs deep and true

The blood of ancient magnificence,

Flowing in his veins,

Is once again manifest at the great troubled hour.

Wise and with courage apposite

My sincerest respect to him then and evermore

As the Nazgul loomed down upon–

Fair of countenance and dark of hair

Lord of Emyn Arnen, Ithilien's Prince

His sword in combat against the hideous dread.
