Frog and Toad craddle warm cups of tea in their hands, as they sit in cozy chairs in front of the fire.

From "Shivers"
In *Days with Frog and Toad*

The night was cold and dark.

“Listen to the wind howling in the trees,” said Frog. “What a fine time for a ghost story.”

‘You up there, stop your squeaking!’ While Sam watches, the small Orc enters, raises a ladder to a trap-door, and climbs up to a secret room. Sam hears a whip crack. He scales the ladder and cuts off the Orc’s hand before the whip can fall a second time across Frodo’s body.

The Orc falls through the trap-door and breaks its neck. The hobbits are alone. Frodo thinks the Ring was captured—but Sam has it, on its chain around his neck. ‘Sam, you're a marvel!’

Frodo gets angry when Sam suggests they might ‘share’ the Ring’s burden, but then apologizes.

Sam has thoroughly searched the tower, but can’t find Frodo. As the last torch goes out, leaving him in the dark, he sings.

‘…Above all shadows rides the Sun,
and Stars for ever dwell:
I will not say the Day is done,
nor bid the Stars farewell.’

An Orc hears him singing.
