Story

The Istari ("those who know"), who some call wizards, are emissaries from the Valar, sent to aid Men and Elves in their struggle against Sauron. They appear to be old Men, but that is deceiving. Initially some thought them to be Elves due to their longevity and wisdom. For that reason the one the Eldar call Mithrandir is known as Gandalf ("Wand-elf") by Men in the northwest of Middle-earth.

Mithrandir sings a Song of Lórien in the Golden Hall of Meduseld:

In Dwimordene, in Lórien
Seldom have walked the feet of Men,
Few mortal eyes have seen the light
That lies there ever, long and bright.
Galadriel! Galadriel!
Clear is the water of your well;
White is the star in your white hand;
Unmarred, unstained is leaf and land
In Dwimordene, in Lórien
More fair than thoughts of Mortal Men.[1]

Story

When the black breath blows
and death's shadows grows
and all lights pass,
come athelas! come athelas! 
Life to the dying
in the king's Hand Lying! (1)

When Eregiel and Calentauriel entered the dining chamber they were told that they should be seated. A footman instructed that they should begin eating as soon as the food was brought, as Lothíriel had some affairs to attend to before she broke her fast.

~Eregiel's Dream~

'Despite all warnings we have ridden to Isengard, nésa,' said Calentauriel. 'For what purpose?'

'Closure, nésa,' Eregiel answered. 'I want to see for myself that Isengard is truly overthrown. Thenafter shall my mind find peace.'

'You will receive no argument from me, nésa,' her sister replied.

A Little Old Man Called Gandalf

in

"All that the unsuspecting Bilbo saw that morning was an old man with a staff. He had a tall pointed blue hat, a long grey cloak, a silver scarf over which his long white beard hung down below his waist, and immense black boots." (J.R.R.Tolkien - The Hobbit)
