J'avoue avoir quelques lacunes concernant nos amis les Nains, aussi j'imagine que les Casandili auront sûrement des remarques ou des informations à fournir sur ce passage (HoMe VII p. 181, l'emphase est mienne) :
Citation :Gandalf at first replied: ‘I do not know. I have never before seen or heard tell of such a creature’. This was struck out and replaced by the words in FR, ‘but the arms were all guided by one purpose’. Possibly in relation to this, there is a pencilled note at this point in the manuscript: ‘? Insert words of Gimli saying that there were traditions among the Dwarves about strangling fingers in the dark.’
