 * 1954: "To his astonishment and terror, and lasting delight, Sam saw a vast shape crash out of the trees and come careering down the slope. Big as a house, much bigger than a house, it looked to him, a grey-clad moving hill. Fear and wonder, maybe, enlarged him in the hobbit's eyes, but the Mûmak of Harad was indeed a beast of vast bulk, and the like of him does not walk now in Middle-earth; his kin that live still in latter days are but memories of his girth and majesty." —J. R. R. Tolkien, The Two Towers, "Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit"
 * 1999: "The beast stood revealed, vast as thunderclouds, towering over my footsoldiers who stumbled and staggered from its path, their spears and bows forgotten, their legs weak with fear. Mumak! Its tusks shone like lightning, its tread shook the ground." —28 February 1999
