LV's speach to the DEs/Priori Incantatem

In part of his speech to the DEs, LV states:
 "And here we have six missing Death Eaters...three dead in my 
service. One, too cowardly to return...he will pay. One, who I 
believe has left me forever...he will be killed, of course...and 
one, who remains my most faithful servant, and has already reentered 
my service."

The way I read this, the one who LV believes has left him forever 
must be Snape. This would mean the LV intends to kill Snape, and I 
believe sets up an interesting "alliance" between Snape and Harry. 
This, of course, assumes Dumbledore is correct in trusting Snape. I 
also wonder if Harry remembered this particular snippet of LV's 
speech when he recounts his experience to Dumbledore and Sirius. If 
so, I hope Dumbledore passes this bit of information to Snape. 
Personally I would like to read about Snape and Harry having to 
overcome their animosity and cooperate to do battle with LV, or at 
least of Harry saving Snape's life.

Also, I found the bit about Harry forcing the light beads back into 
LV's wand. To me it seems that this is yet another hint that Harry 
is becoming much more powerful as a wizard, and may even be a 
stronger wizard than LV is an that particular scene. Of course, LV 
has just been returned to his body and my not be up to full strength 
yet, but Harry may just turn out to be the stronger of the two 
wizards.

P.S. Since LV is the most powerful Dark Wizard in more than a 
century, he would have to be more powerful than the wizard that 
Dumbledore defeated in 1945.
