Rereading The Hobbit, like you do, and when the party gets to Rivendell the narrator says āI wish I had time to tell you even a few of the tales or one or two of the songs that they heard in that house.ā
And like. Jirt. My man.
I know itās for narrative effect, but nothing I have ever read in my entire life has been less believable than Tolkien himself writing that he doesnāt have time to include a song.
