Missing page number for Tolkien quote

I am trying this again, in its own thread (with a better subject),
with the hope that interested parties will speak up:

perlhack.pod says:

    Chapters and
    page numbers are given using the following editions:
...
    I<The Lord of the Rings>, by J.R.R. Tolkien.  The hardcover,
    50th-anniversary edition of 2004 was used, published in the UK by
    Harper Collins Publishers and in the US by the Houghton Mifflin
    Company.

I do not have that edition.  Could someone who does please supply the
page number for the quote at the top of caretx.c?

/*
 *   'I do not know clearly,' said Frodo; 'but the path climbs, I think,
 * up into the mountains on the northern side of that vale where the old
 * city stands.  It goes up to a high cleft and so down to -- that which
 * is beyond.'
 *   'Do you know the name of that high pass?' said Faramir.
 *
 *     [p.xxx of _The Lord of the Rings_, IV/xi: "The Forbidden Pool"]
 */

If anything should block the release of 5.20, *this* should be it. :-)
