 | Gorbag  | Can’t you stop your rabble making such a racket, Shagrat? We don’t want Shelob on us. | Shagrat, fipâsh puzgut lurgfib krampug zâsh zurm, mar?

-| Shagrat | Go on, Gorbag! Yours are making more than half the noise, but let the lads play! No need to worry about Shelob for a bit, I reckon. She’s sat on a nail, it seems, and we shan’t cry about that. Didn’t you see: a nasty mess all the way back to that cursed crack of hers? If we’ve stopped it once, we’ve stopped it a hundred times. So let ’em laugh. And we’ve struck a bit of luck at last: got something that Lugbúrz wants. | Garn, Gorbag! Fib krampû makar pirob zurmumob, ap gâkh nonk tailubû!

 | Gorbag  | Lugbúrz wants it, eh? What is it, d’you think? Elvish it looked to me, but undersized. What’s the danger in a thing like that? | Lugbûrz hizâtan, mar? Da ûs za kul mash?

-| Shagrat | Sh, Gorbag! They may, but they’ve got eyes and ears everywhere; some among my lot, as like as not. But there’s no doubt about it, they’re troubled about something. The Nazgûl down below are, by your account; and Lugbúrz is too. Something nearly slipped. | Sh, Gorbag! Takilf, nân takbrus hont agh khlau inûgh; mûd lurgdabri, ghungsi nar.

-| Gorbag  | No, I don’t know. The messages go through quicker than anything could fly, as a rule. But I don’t enquire how it’s done. Safest not to. Grr! Those Nazgûl give me the creeps. And they skin the body off you as soon as look at you, and leave you all cold in the dark on the other side. But He likes ’em; they’re His favourites nowadays, so it’s no use grumbling.

I say, something //has// slipped. And we’ve got to look out. Always the poor Uruks to put slips right, and small thanks.

 | Shagrat | About an hour ago, just before you saw us. A message came: //Nazgûl uneasy. Spies feared on Stairs. Double vigilance.

-| Gorbag  | Bad business. See here -- our Silent Watchers were uneasy more than two days ago, that I know. But my patrol wasn’t ordered out for another day, nor any message sent to Lugbúrz either: owing to the [[tg>Great_Signal|Great Signal]] going up, and the High Nazgûl going off to the war, and all that. And then they couldn’t get Lugbúrz to pay attention for a good while, I’m told. | Bildfik. Hon zin -- Tadal Ghil dakob kuzû naruls makar snû krul ârsh krut, zamash da îst.

I suppose he’s no good to eat: she wouldn’t worry about words from High Up. But a fine guard you keep in the valley: he was up here a day before all this racket. Early last night we saw him. Anyway my lads reported that Her Ladyship was having some fun, and that seemed good enough for me, until the message came. I thought her Sneak had brought her a toy, or that you’d perhaps sent her a present, a prisoner of war or something. I don’t interfere when she’s playing.
