Finding Frodo

All the old sayings Bilbo pulls out of memory are more than just cliches in my book -- for one, the era the story is set in feels so ancient at times that the proverbs seem newly minted by comparison. At the same time, they represent sensible hobbit wisdom that Bilbo and his father were steeped in. Elsewhere the tone of this chapter is very tense, but lightened with humor (the business with the dropped torch) and the temporary celebratory atmosphere when the dwarves are looking through the treasures.
Where's Frodo?
