THE NARRATIVE IN THE LAY OF LEITHIAN TO ITS TERMINATION

This substantial portion of the poem takes up from the last line of Canto VII in The Lay of Leithian (‘But none would yield, and none would tell’, p. 132), and the opening of Canto VIII corresponds to the very compressed account in the Quenta (p. 133) of the confinement of Lúthien in Nargothrond, imposed on her by Celegorm and Curufin and from which she was rescued by Huan, whose origin is told. A line of asterisks in the text of the Lay marks the start of a further Canto; Canto IX at line 329; Canto X at line 619; Canto XI at line 1009; Canto XII at line 1301; Canto XIII at line 1603; and Canto XIV, the last, at line 1939.
