Her feet were light as bird on wing,
her laughter lighter than the spring;
the slender willow, the bowing reed,
the fragance of a flowering mead,
the light upon the leaves of trees,
the voice of water more than these
her beauty was and blissfulness,
her glory and her loveliness;
- J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lay of Leithian
