Thanks. I'll be around more when I've had my computer cleaned up; I am plagued by a pop-up every thirty seconds or so, and I can't find the program that's calling them up, so it's a reformat job. Here's an easy one:-

Near to dawn, on the eve of spring
A song, as the song of the lark did she sing.
Winter's bonds were released as she sang.
The frozen waters spoke. The flowers sprang.

Who is she, and what was the occasion?

 

[Eledhwen]

Near to dawn, on the eve of spring
A song, as the song of the lark did she sing.
Winter's bonds were released as she sang.
The frozen waters spoke. The flowers sprang.

Luthien, when after Beren had watched her from far for some time she sang at the beginning of Spring. Then Beren was released from the spell of silence.

Spot on Nóm. Your riddle...
