O as intriguing
O as excited
O as irritable
Read the excerpt from The Fellowship of the Ring.
That was Gandalf's mark, of course, and the old
man was Gandalf the Wizard, whose fame in the
Shire was due mainly to his skill with fires, smokes,
and lights. His real business was far more difficult
and dangerous, but the Shire-folk knew nothing
about it. To them he was just one of the "attractions"
at the Party. Hence the excitement of the hobbit-
children. "G for Grand!" they shouted, and the old
man smiled. They knew him by sight, though he only
appeared in Hobbiton occasionally and never
stopped long, but neither they nor any but the oldest
of their elders had seen one of his firework displays
---they now belonged to the legendary past.
