Chapter 8: Describe how the hobbits are released from the barrow-wights?

Tom sings a song, as the hobbits are asleep...... the song loosened something in the inner chamber, and Tom and Frodo then took the other hobbits to safety.

Get out, you old Wight! Vanish in the sunlight! Shrivel like the cold mist, like the winds go wailing, Out into the barren lands far beyond the mountains! Come never here again! Leave your barrow empty! Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till the world is mended.

At these words there was a cry and part of the inner end of the chamber fell in with a crash. Then there was a long trailing shriek, fading away into an unguessable distance; and after that silence.

'Come, friend Frodo!' said Tom. 'Let us get out on to clean grass! You must help me bear them.' Together they carried out Merry, Pippin, and Sam.
