Sting Glorfindel and the Battle or Fornost

I need some info here. Can anyone give me the quote of the prophecy that was spoken by Glorfindel to the WiKi about no man could kill him.

It wasn't spoken to the Witch-King - he had fled just before that. Glorfindel was speaking to Eärnur who wanted to challenge the Witch-King.

Quote:
Eärnur now rode back, but Glorfindel, looking into the gathering dark, said: "Do not pursue him! He will not return to this land. Far off yet is his doom, and not by the hand of man will he fall." These words many remembered; but Eärnur was angry, desiring only to be avenged for his disgrace.

Thank you Legolas, I knew that I had read it, but was too lazy to search all the books or go back to the library to get the others. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I needed to add that into the fan-fiction that I have written. (Yes, it is very true to Tolkien's writing.)
