If you break up prophecy 2 at points where the grammar is flawed , it
reads
thus;
Sentence 1 - The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord
approaches...
Sentence 2 - ........born to those who have thrice defied him, born as
the seventh month dies...
Sentence 3 - ...........and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal,
but he will have powers that the Dark Lord knows not...
Sentence 4 - ............and either must die at the hand of the other
for neither can live while the other survives...
Sentence 5 - the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be
born as the seventh month dies...
As a teacher myself, let be very clear - JKR would not construct a
paragraph that is so grammatically flawed. We HAVE NOT heard the whole
prophecy!!

And dont forget....{sentence fragment}... jkr is a word trickster.
Pensieve is a play on pensive and sieve -- meaning memory filter.
We just don't know what has been filtered out.
