death to capslock

----It's hard to tell what Voldemort thought Harry knew. Lucius *says* that Voldemort thought Harry knew about the prophecy, but as I've pointed out earlier, it doesn't make much sense. If Voldemort thought Dumbledore had told Harry about it, Voldemort would presumably also think that Dumbledore would arrange for Harry to hear it -- even if it meant bringing him to the DoM personally. There would be no point in telling Harry *about* the prophecy without telling him what the prophecy *said* -- unless, like Voldemort, you wanted Harry to run off to the DoM.

It's possible that Lucius was mocking Harry with his "Dumbledore never told you?" meaning that it's obvious that Harry is just Dumbledore's clueless pawn.

Voldemort may have known perfectly well that Dumbledore hadn't told Harry about the prophecy. However, he might have expected that Harry and his friends would be able to figure out what he was after in the DOM based upon the visions that he had sent.... and then Harry would be drawn by natural curiosity to find out what the prophecy said.

And actually, wouldn't Hermione normally have been researching like crazy to find out what could possibly be in the DOM?

I wonder if Hermione knew about the prophecy but wasn't allowed to tell Harry.
