they believed in the tale which he told them of the Glittering Plain and
the Acre of the Undying. The four maidens also were made sisters of the
House; and the other twain were sent home to their own kindred in all
honour.

Of the Puny Fox it is said that he soon lost and forgot all the lore
which he had learned of the ancient men, living and dead; and became as
other men and was no wizard. Yet he was exceeding valiant and doughty;
and he ceased not to go with Hallblithe wheresoever he went; and many
deeds they did together, whereof the memory of men hath failed: but
neither they nor any man of the Ravens came any more to the Glittering
Plain, or heard any tidings of the folk that dwell there.

HEREWITH ENDETH THE TALE.
