I remember how amazed I was the first time I learned that Boromir had actually lost his horse relatively early along the road. It makes his entire journey all the more poignant for me.

It always gets to me when Eomer tells how his horse came back alone.

Boromir though of Osgiliath - the scream, the chill in the blood, water closing overhead…

What a hard, long, difficult journey for Boromir. This scene is well described.

A very vivid scene.
