Snape's Countercurse...Any lip-readers here?

I visited a Snape site and was intrigued by one of the moving-gif 
images there. It's from the scene where Snape is attempting to 
counter the curse on Harry's broom...and it's moving a bit slower 
than real-time, which might make it possible for a good lip-reader to 
make-out what he's saying (or at least work out the phonetics if he's 
not speaking in English). 

I know that some lip-readers have managed (I think) to solve a 
portion of his countercurse from watching the DVD (i.e. figuring out 
the line "You shall leave us be"...or whatever it was). This 
particular GIF is from another portion of that scene.

So, if anyone would like to give it a try (please, please, please), 
here's the link:

Scroll down toward the bottom, and wait for the GIF to load (may take 
a while).

Hope someone can figure it out.
