"Gondolin"
Painting by Ted Nasmith
Then Tuor looked down upon the fair vale of
Tumladen,
set as a green jewel amid the encircling hills; and he saw
far off upon the rocky height of Amon Gwareth Gondolin
the
great, city of seven names, whose fame and glory is
mightiest in song of all the dwellings of the Elves
in the
Hither Lands.
