Voldemort never said that he knew Snape "had left us." He never used
Snape's name, so we don't know who he was referring to. Since not all the
DE's at the meeting were named, for all we know Snape was there,
pretending to be loyal. The relevant text from Book 4 is deliberately vague:
"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 who has
already reentered my service."
Snape could be any of those last 3, or none.
