Tell me therefore (and I ask no more of you), is there any rumour or memory of a way that cleav- eth yonder mighty wall of rock to other lands ?" Said the damsel: "There is more than a mem- ory or a rumour: there is a road through the OR, THE LAND OF LIVING MEN. 1 29 mountains known to all men. For at whiles the earthly pilgrims come into the Glittering Plain thereby ; and yet but seldom, so many are the griefs and perils which beset the wayfarers on that road. Whereof thou hadst far better bet...hink thee in time, and abide here and be happy with us and others who long sore to make thee happy." "Nay," said Hallblithe, "there is nought to do but tell me of the way, and I will depart at once, blessing you." Said the Sea-eagle: "More than that at least will we do. May I lose the bliss whereto I have attained, if I go not with thee to the very edge of the land of the Glittering Plain. Shall it not be so, sweetheart ? " "Yea, at least we may do that," said the damsel; and she hung her head as if she were ashamed, and said: "And that is all that thou wilt get from us at most." Said Hallblithe: "It is enough, and I asked not so much." Then the damsel busied herself, and set meat and drink in two wallets, and took one herself and gave the other to the Sea-eagle, and said: "We will be thy porters, O Spearman, and will give thee a full wallet from the last house by the Desert of Dread, for when thou hast entered 9 I30 THE STORY OF THE GLITTERING PLAIN; therein, thou mayst well find victual hard to come by: and now let us linger no more since the road is dear to thee." So they set forth on foot, for in that land men were slow to feel weariness; and turning about the hill of Wood-end, they passed by some broken country, and came at even to a house at the en- trance of a long valley, with high and steeply- sloping sides, which seemed, as it were, to cleave the dale country wherein they had fared afore- time.
