Finns det en transkription av Tolkiens handstil i denna bild? (Del 3)

Jag skulle inte göra det här, men först två frågor var så populära att jag tror att vi kan gå på hattricket.

Obs! Jag kan inte ens fråga dig om att skriva om det själv, men om du gör det får du en summa. Du kan dock inte transkribera det. Jag tror inte att någon kan. Jag är nästan frestad att anklaga Christopher Tolkien för att ta upp vilken transkription han har publicerat.

The rope lay slack for a long while as Sam stared at it. Suddenly it drew taut, and nearly caught him at unawares. He braced his feet, and wondering [read wondered] what had happened and whether his master was now dangling in mid-air at the far rope's end, but not [read no] cry came, and the rope went slack again. After a long while as it seemed he thought he heard a faint hail. He listened, it came again, and cautiously he crawled to the brink taking in the slack as he went. The darkness was drawing nearer - and it seemed dim below; but in his grey cloak Frodo if he was there was quite invisible. But something white fluttered and the shout came up clear now. 'It's all right, not too difficult at all except in one place. I'm down. [?I've] 3 ells of rope to spare. Slowly [?to take] my weight ... I'm coming up and shall use the rope.'
In about 10 mins. he reappeared over the edge and threw himself down by Sam. 'That's that,' he said. 'I'll be glad of a short rest. Down you go now - he described the route as best he could and direct[ed] Sam to hail when he came to the bad place. 'I slipped there,' he said, 'and [?should have gone] but for the rope, a little over halfway down, quite a drop [?start to finish]. But I think I can just ... you.(12) Pay it out slowly and take the weight off on any ledge you come on. Good luck.'
