I've been checking here all day, and the red button on this thread was not lit up, yet your guess was posted last night, Lizzy. I don't get it ... Hm. "D" is a critical letter in this hangman.

"Des--i-ed!"/she/hissed./ "Dese--ated!/Be----ed!"

I tried to ask for a letter yesterday, or at least I thought I did but I never saw it show up.

So, how about an R?

Any "O"'s?

Right! I think I have the hangman, but I can't work out who said this to whom and in what book

"Des-oi-ed!"/she/hissed./ "Desecrated!/Be-o--ed!"

Who said it to whom about what, and in which book?

"Despoiled!" she hissed. "Desecrated! Befouled!"

Yep, the quote is correct. The speaker, however is Madam Pince. Harry and Hermione have been in the library studying, and she has come to tell them the library is closed. She catches a glimpse of the Half-Blood Prince's potions book Harry has and begins yelling at him about the writing in it. It certainly does sound like the portrait, though ... I'd never even thought of it before.

CONGRATULATIONS, LIZZY!! The next hangman is yours!
