The Madame has a superior faculty for this business, having been born with a Caul on her Face, by virtue of which she can more accurately read the past, present, and future; also enabling her to cure many diseases without using drugs or medicines. The madame advertises nothing but what she can do. Call on her if you would consult the greatest Foreteller of events now living.
They had been told by their grandmothers that who ever did so would be sure to have new clothes before the end of the year. The despised flower was by this raised to the position of a prophet or foreteller of events. "Do you see," said the sunbeam, "do you see the beauty of these flowers? do you see their powers of giving pleasure?" "Yes, to children," said the apple-bough.
The best which I can recollect is the great picture by Guido ah, that he had painted always as wisely and as well of the magnificent lad sitting on the rock, half clad in his camel's hair robe, his stalwart hand lifted up to denounce he hardly knows what, save that things are going all wrong, utterly wrong to him; his beautiful mouth open to preach, he hardly knows what, save that he has a message from God, of which he is half-conscious as yet that he is a forerunner, a prophet, a foreteller of something and some one which is to come, and which yet is very near at hand.

When Antigone is borne away, an august personage is presented to us, whose very name to us, who usually read the Oedipus Tyrannus before the Antigone, is the foreteller of omen and doom.
Originally the prophet was a foreteller and acted under the inspiration of a god, a divine seizure that was allied to madness. The ravings of the savage shaman are repeated in the ravings of Cassandra and in the excited utterances and bodily exhaustion of the early Hebrew prophets.
The prophet was more than a foreteller, as is being continually insisted upon nowadays. There were prophets who never uttered a single prediction. Their place in Israel was to be the champions of righteousness, and I was going to say the knights of God, as against law and ceremonial and externalism.
'Why, what do you know about Liddell and Scott? 'Nothing, thank goodness; I never had time to waste over the crooked letters. But I have heard say that prophetes means, not a foreteller, but an out-teller one who declares the will of a deity, and interprets his oracles. Is it not so? 'Undeniably.
This was Khosrul, the Prophet of a creed that was to revolutionize the world, the fanatic for a faith as yet unrevealed to men, the dauntless foreteller of the downfall of Al-Kyris and its King!
My father put on his spectacles bit his lip and tore out the leaf in a passion. O Slawkenbergius! thou faithful analyzer of my Disgrazias thou sad foreteller of so many of the whips and short turns which on one stage or other of my life have come slap upon me from the shortness of my nose, and no other cause, that I am conscious of.
Of prediction of the future, indeed, there is but one instance; the prophet disclaimed the power to work miracles, and held that no wonders beyond those of the splendid order of the universe are necessary to faith; and similarly he does not pose as a foreteller, but as an organ of the divine will for the present.
