For a moment
Treebeard stood under the rain of the falling spring, and took a deep breath; then he laughed, and passed inside. A great stone table stood there, but no chairs. At the back of the bay it was already quite dark. Treebeard lifted two great vessels and stood them on the table. They seemed to be filled with water; but he held his ands over them and immediately they began to glow, one with a golden and the other with a rich green light; and the blending of the two lights lit the bay, as if the sun of summer was shining through a roof of young leaves. Looking back, the
hobbits saw that the
trees in the court had also begun to glow, faintly at first, bu steadily quickening, until every leaf was edged with light: some green, some gold, some red as copper, while the tree-trunks looked like pillars moulded out of luminous stone.
