This is the Mirror of Galadriel. It shows things that were, and things that are, and things that yet may be. Do you wish to look?

I'd not mind a glimpse of what's going at home. It seems a terrible long time I've been away.

Come then. You shall look and see what you may.

I've got to go home! They've dug up Bagshot Row and thrown my poor old gaffer out in the street! I've got to go home!

The Mirror shows many things, Sam, and not all have yet come to pass. Some never come to be unless those that behold the vision turn aside from their path to prevent them. Do you wish to leave Frodo now and go home?

No.

Frodo

Gandalf! No...No, it must be Saruman. [reaches his hand onto the Mirror]

Do not touch the water! [Frodo pulls his hand back] He's looking for you. But he cannot find you, not here, not yet. The door is closed. [shows her ring Nenya to Frodo, which shimmers a soft light]

Frodo

"Three rings for the Elven kings under the sky."

Yes. We hid those three from him, and he has never touched them. If your quest fails, then nothing can stand against him and we are defenseless. Yet, if you succeed, if the One Ring is destroyed, all we've built with the three will fade. Time will come here, and Lothlórien will fade. You are the footstep of doom to us, Frodo.

Frodo

Lady Galadriel, I will give you the one ring if you ask for it. It's too great a matter for me.

And I came to test your heart. You will give me the Great Ring freely, and in place of the Dark Lord, you will set up a queen! And I shall not be evil, but beautiful and terrible as the morning and the night, stronger than the foundations of the Earth! All shall love me under despair! I pass the test. I shall diminish and go into the west and remain Galadriel, and you must depart in the morning.
