I believe these are the two mentionings to Eru that Tolkien reffered to in his BBC interview.

He rose in favour, it was this that gave him the 'key' to obtaining the title of 'Mouth of Sauron'. Although on second thoughts the passage in the "Black Gate is Open", it does seem rather self proclaimed.

I agree; moreover, I believe that all of Sauron's terms would be just another trick of his; after all, he expected absolute worship on behalf of all inhabitants of Middle-Earth, so I don't see why he would leave men leaving between Anduin and the gap of Rohan govern their own affairs. He might have even deceived the mouthie (mouth of Sauron) in believing he will given whatever high rank - for the
heck of it, for giving him an incentive to do his best, to test his enemies, etc.

Witch-king; (other terms I enjoy: Gandie for Gandalf, Glorfy for Glorfindel - another example of how lazyness can be creative
