D's 'few

may have been some kind of trigger for a spell, set at some earlier 
time, in

anyone would utter those four words strung like that in any normal 
conversation?

Well, Harry missed the feast his second and third years, so we don't 
know what might have been said.  His fourth year, the Tri-Wizard 
Tournament pretty much dominated the remarks.  I always just 
attributed D's "few words" to being nonsense, kind of like an opening 
joke in a speech.  Maybe I'm missing something, but that's just what 
I thought.
