rivers, fountains and springs, throughout the earth. Subject to him is Osse, the master of the seas about the lands of Men; and his wife is Uinen the lady of the sea. Her hair lies spread through all the waters under skies. $5 Aule has might but little less [> little less] than Ulmo. He is a smith and a master of crafts; and his spouse is Yavanna, the giver of fruits and lover of all things that grow. In majesty she i." next to Varda, her sister, among the queens of the Valar. She is fair and tall, and often the Elves name her Palurien, the Lady of the Wide Earth. $6 The Fanturi [> Feanturi] were brethren, and are named Mandos and Lorien [> Lorion]. Yet these are not their right names, and are the names rather of the places of their abiding. For their right names are seldom spoken save in secret: which are Namo and Irmo. Quoth Rumil.

His hair and beard are golden, and his flesh ruddy; his weapons are his hands. He recks little of either past or future, and is of small avail as a counsellor, but a hardy friend.
