ROTK, Book 6, Chapter 4, The Field of Cormallen
The Eagles rescue Sam and Frodo. Sam
awakens in Ithilien to find Gandalf (whom he thought was dead) standing before his bed.
Side by side they lay; and down
swept Gwaihir, and down came Landroval and Meneldor the swift;
and in a dream, not knowing
what fate had befallen them, the wanderers were
lifted up and
borne far away out of the darkness and the
fire.
...
Sam lay back, and stared with open
mouth, and for a moment, between bewilderment and great joy, he
could not answer. At last he gasped: 'Gandalf! I thought you
were dead! But then I thought I was dead myself.
Is everything sad going to come untrue?
What's happened to the world?'
