I have to listen to Houses of the Holy to find out any reference to Tolkien. About LZ IV, I thought of the Misty Mountains.

On "The Battle of Evermore" there's a reference to the "Ring Wraiths."
Was that the one you had in mind?
Now, give me another Zeppelin LOTR reference, this time from "Houses of the Holy."

 Huzzah! Lucas wins! Well done!
On "Ramble On," Plant sings: "It was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair. But Gollum, the evil one, crept up and slipped away with her."

Ramble on : 'Mordor' and 'Gollum'[aka Smeagol].
On Led Zep IV there is also a reference to Tolkien's TLOR. Which one and on which song ?

 Yes, Joren, I'm very sure! An actual, irrefutable LOTR reference in the lyrics. Come on, music fans! I'm waiting....

You're sure there is one?  I love Led Zep 2 and I like Lord Of The Rings, but I never heard a reference...
Or does the drum solo of Bonzo remind you of Orcs?

Not a prog question, but anyway:
 Give me a Tolkien LOTR reference from Led Zeppelin 2. No Net research or looking at lyrics allowed, but you can play the album.
Who'll be first this time
