‘I should like to save the Shire, if I could - though there have been times when I thought the inhabitants too stupid and dull for words, and have felt that an earthquake or an invasion of dragons might be good for them. But I don’t feel like that now. I feel that as long as the Shire lies behind, safe and comfortable, I shall find wandering more bearable: I shall know that somewhere there is a firm foothold, even if my feet cannot stand there again.

‘Y fia da genev sawya an Shayr, mar kallsen vy, kynth esa prysyow pan dybis vy an dus dhe vos re gokki ha talsogh dh’aga deskrifa, ha my a omglywas po dorgrys po livans a dhragones dhe vos da ragdha. Mes ny omglywav yndella lemmyn. Mar korwettho an Shayr a-dhelergh, salow hag attes, gwandra a vydh moy perthadow dell omglywav: my a vydh konvedhes bos troesla krev yn neb le, kyn na yll ow dewdroes sevel ena arta.
