And the ship went out into the High Sea and passed into the West, until at last on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water.

The rain that seems actually a secret language, whispering, like the ecstasy of primitives, of the essence of things.
