You've got Sauron in a nutshell right there!
They went in, and Sam shut the door.
But even as he did so, he heard suddenly,
deep and unstilled,
the sigh and murmur of the Sea upon the shores of Middle-earth.
From the unpublished Epilogue to the Lord of the Rings

If we follow the assumption that everything in LoTR is written and filtered/translated by hobbits, then the WiKing's words to Eowyn--which Merry certainly heard firsthand--are also full of menace and evil, vs. Sauron's vanilla words to Pippin.

...that Merry heard the words spoken, whereas Pippin's experience was all "telepathic", in his head, and he had to articulate the experience in his own words.
