One I and two Es for Elfstone; an R for Laurelindhe ilmarin, and an S for Stonehelm. 
So now it reads:
_ _ R I _ / _ _ / _ _ E / _ E _ S (five, two, three, and four letter words respectively)
And so far there are no incorrect guesses.

Ah, I'm just gonna guess. I believe it is Hurin of the Keys, who commanded Minas Tirith while Aragorn led the Army of Gondor to the Black Gate?
Well done Oloriniwasinmyyouth, you got it; now it's your turn.
Great guess, Olorin! 
Now give us a good one!
Now give us a good one!

How about an Sssss? 
Might there be an N or two, if you please?
Some people have forgotten that E is the most common letter in the english language. So I say E!

One S, one N, and four of those ever popular E's
_ _ E / _ A _ S / _ _ / _ _ E E N / _ _ _ _ _ _ I E _
No bad letters yet
_ _ E / _ A _ S / _ _ / _ _ E E N / _ _ _ _ _ _ I E _
No bad letters yet
I think it probably needs at least one H, if you please.

Two H's, in fact.

_ H E / _ A _ S / _ _ / _ _ E E N / _ _ _ _ _ H I E _
Let's try for a Q this time, please.
(I still haven't the foggiest idea of what it is, just looking for could be letters.)

Winners all around again! Four D's for Olorin, three I's for Loni, and two N's for Grondy so,
_ E _ - D _ L! _ E _ _ _ - D _ L! _ I N _ - A - D I N _ - D I L L _!
_ E _ - D _ L! _ E _ _ _ - D _ L! _ I N _ - A - D I N _ - D I L L _!
Me thinks it needs four Os and one less I.

Sorry Grondy, I can only give you three O's.
And Loni was obviously correct about the last part of the phrase so,
_ E _ - D O L! _ E _ _ _ - D O L! R I N G - A - D I N G - D I L L O!
And Loni was obviously correct about the last part of the phrase so,
_ E _ - D O L! _ E _ _ _ - D O L! R I N G - A - D I N G - D I L L O!
HAHA!!!! I SEE WHAT IT IS NOW!!!! But I won't spoil it, seeing as I did the last part of it. And besides, I don't know when I'll next be on here. I've got school tomorrow. I'll probably get on the computer, but I'm going through a mini-obsession about the phantom of the opera right now, so I'll probably be looking for pictures and quotes and screensavers and editing my 24-page document of the lyrics and all that. And I"ve got to learn the darn sheet music!!! It's easy, except for that bit at the end of 'prima donna.' All those chords!!!!
That's funny: in at least three of my books in both the text and the Index to First Lines of Poems and Songs, the first line of Tom's song ends with "ring a dong dillo!" 
Anyway, assuming I'm right (regardless of whether it was an i or o; try:
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
(2, 7, 1, 4, 2, and 8 letter words respectively)
Quote:
Hey dol! merry dol! ring a dong dillo!
Ring a dong! hop along! fal lal the willow!
Tom Bom, jolly Tom, Tom Bombadillo!
- that and many more lines can be found in
FotR, Book 1, Chapter VI entitled, 'The Old Forest'.

I would be most grateful for an N or two or three...
Yes Laurelindhe ilmarin, I can credit you with two Ns.
So now it reads:
_ _ / _ _ _ N _ _ _ / _ / _ _ N _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So now it reads:
_ _ / _ _ _ N _ _ _ / _ / _ _ N _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Yes, you’re correct Grondy, it’s "ring a dong dillo", and "not ring a ding dillo" like I mistakenly posted. My bad, sorry folks!!!
Anyway, how about an I please?
You people don't get it, do you? I keep telling you that E is the most common letter... Oh, I see. You're leaving it for little ol' me... Oh, you're so nice!!! E it is, then.
Yes that's two Es for Loni, one I for Elfstone, two Ns for Laurelindhe ilmarin, two Os for Oloriniwasinmyyouth,
So now it reads:
_ E / _ _ _ N _ E _ / _ / _ O N _ / O _ / _ I _ _ _ _ _ _
Happily, there are still no incorrect guesses.

Grondy, this was a great one. The line from the battle between Finrod and Sauron, from the Lay of Leithian -
He chanted a song of wizardry
He chanted a song of wizardry
I memorised that poem! For my DRama assessment. Voice dynamics. I got Excellence, top marks. Now it's your turn
Yes, that was it and it is now Oloriniwasinmyyouth turn to give us another one.
