BLACK CONTINUES... ELVISH SINGING....A WOMAN'S VOICE IS

whispering, tinged with SADNESS and REGRET:
                    GALADRIEL (V.O.)

              (Elvish: subtitled)

"I amar prestar sen: han mathon ne nen,

han mathon ne chae...a han noston ned

wilith."

The world is changed: I feel it in the

water, I feel it in the earth, I smell it

in the air...Much that once was is lost,

for none now live who remember it.
