1655 T. Fuller Church-hist. Brit. iv. 170 An old prophesie among the English (observed by forrainers to be the greatest Prophecy-mongers).

1769 H. Walpole Corr. 14 Jan. (1967) VII. 81 Whiston, and such prophecy-mongers, were very unlucky to die before the present era.

1819 Times 13 Oct. 2/4 Our prophecy-mongers supply the silence.

1858 H. W. Beecher & E. D. Proctor Life Thoughts 32 Such to me is the Bible, when the pragmatic prophecy-monger and the swinish utilitarian have toothed its fruits and craunched its blossoms.

1982 Past & Present 95 56 In 1546 a prophecy-monger predicted that ‘within this twelve moneth ye shall see that every boye in the streate shall spytte in the preystes faces’.

1991 Time Mag. (Nexis) 11 Feb. 88 That makes it deceptively easy for prophecy mongers to identify Iraq with Babylon.

2002 Booklist (Nexis) 1 July 1794 Finesse it however they may (by simultaneously flaunting God's mercy, for instance), prophecy-mongers always seem bent on frightening people to the church.
