Who do you think is greater, J R R Tolkien or E R Eddison?

Eddison in terms of prose (though it has to be your thing). Tolkien in just about everything else. I love the philosophical intensity of alot of stuff in Eddison - my favourite book of his is "Mistress of Mistresses" - but in the sober light of day, away from the prose, I feel pretty much like Tolkien did about the worldview embedded in it!
