    The Ring's black speech whisperings

    Some time ago I downloaded Sharkey's Purist Edit of the movies and enjoy watching those rather than the originals. One drawback to Sharkey's though is that it lacks subtitles, so I'm writing some, just for my own use. I like to be thorough, so I'm curious what all the Ring says when Frodo...
