Summary: Thrice thrown are we


Living light are we     of an elder age
Silver shining     Golden gleaming
In crystal caught     Illuming all
Heavy in hand are we     freed from dread durance
From wolf wrested     In sorrow sought
In blood bourne     Oath binding all
Thrice thrown are we     from harrowing heights
One to fire     One to fathom
One to fly     Hallowing all
Who are we?



Answer: The Silmarils, without which the history of Middle Earth would be very different.
