Are You the Burglar Or Bilbo Revisited

Were you offered an adventure past the gateway to the lake for a share of golden treasure? What decision did you make? Were you captured by some hungry Trolls while spying all alone? Did the magic in the sunlight turn your enemies to stone? Did you travel on a pony through the mountains in the spring? Did you really riddle Gollum? Did you dare to steal his ring? Do you know the King of Eagles? Were you once his honored guest? Did you travel through the forest with King Thorin and the rest? Did you ride the running river on a barrel made of wood? Did you really tease a dragon? Did it do you any good? Do you live in Hobbit comfort with the money that you made? Do you boast of how the Goblins and the spiders fear your blade? Will you now forsake adventures? Have you put away your sting? Are you still the only burglar for the Wizard and the King? Were you truly born the only son of Belladonna Took? Or are you simply lost in an extraordinary book?
