Word fan Feor Hund asked that I give priority to the word “round” and I’m happy to do so!  It makes a delightful graph and is used 112 times in the work.  The peak in Chapter 6 seems to be caused by wargs going “round and round” the trees as Bilbo and his friends jump out of the frying pan and into the fire.  this graph peaks at just over 3.5 “round” words per thousand

• 2.050 and William turned round at once
• 2.060 “P’raps there are more like him round about,
• 2.071 and his head was going round;

• 6.059 with wolves all round below waiting for you,
• 6.064 with wolves all round on the ground below.
• 6.064 and then rushed round
• 6.064 and round the circle
• 6.069 and slowly circling ever round
• 6.069 and round they came down,
• 6.070 All round the clearing of the Wargs fire was leaping.
• 6.070 and howling round the trunks,
• 6.072 and brushwood round the tree-trunks.
• 6.072 Others rushed round
• 6.072 all round the dwarves,
• 6.072 dancing round
• 6.072 and round
• 6.072 in a circle like people round a midsummer bonfire.
• 6.099 and the figures of the dwarves round it cooking
• 7.005 for they began to go down circling round
• 7.019 The dwarves all gathered round
• 7.030 There is a gate somewhere round this way.’
• 7.051 and Dori came round the house
• 7.093 in rolling round drum-shaped sections of logs,
• 7.097 The dwarves were sitting cross-legged on the floor round the fire,
• 7.116 dodging round the pillars of the hall,
• 7.120 dancing slow heavy dances round
• 7.120 and round
• 7.125 and they followed round the house.

• 8.058 to some of the trees round about;
• 8.073 Bilbo found himself running round
• 8.073 and round
• 8.073 while people he could not see or feel were doing the same all round him
• 8.075 as it struggled to wind its abominable threads round
• 8.075 and round him.
• 8.087 Just coming round again,
• 8.099 in a thick fence of them all round him –
• 8.106 that bound him round,
• 8.107 wound round
• 8.107 and round with only his nose to breathe through.
• 8.112 round old Bombur
• 8.114 and hundreds of angry spiders were goggling at them all round
• 8.115 to weave their webs all round them again
• 8.128 and looked round at them.
• 9.001 of many torches all round them,
• 9.038 running round putting the finishing touches to the packing,
• 9.046 Then they drank once round
• 9.052 began to sing a song round the river-door.
• 9.055 the barrel rolled round
• 10.001 After a while the river rounded a steep shoulder of land
• 10.009 and towed away round the high shoulder of rock
• 10.045 and ponies had been sent round by circuitous paths
• 11.037 and drew the key on its chain from round his neck.
• 12.027 or fly whirling round
• 12.031 as he hunted round
• 12.031 and round the mountain-sides.
• 13.011 Faint echoes ran round the unseen hall,

• 13.051 and round
• 13.067 There were several places like it round the Mountain.
• 14.015 and round again,
• 16.017 when he missed his footing on a round stone
• 17.031 round the eastern spur of the Mountain
• 17.048 round the spur’s end
• 17.062 in the gloom Bilbo looked round.
• 18.023 about their lords upon a low rounded hill.
