From the Simmerilian (from memory)

Manwee speaking of Feanor: "He is right, those songs will be dearly bought, but they will be well bought, for their price could have been on other!"

Mandos: "But the evil remains."

Recte "Silmarillion," and "Manwe," with an umlaut over the "e."

Thanks Jordan. I struggle with spelling as I could never visualize words, and those weren't in the dictionary.

You can be cut some slack. If spelling is not your forte, Tolkien's words from his Elvish languages are bound to be troublesome. (But you said you were going from memory, so it's no big whoop.)
