Burn prophet’s report (4)
I believe the answer is:
seer
This clue might be a double definition.
'burn prophet's' is the first definition.
'seer' can be an answer for 'prophet's' (both can mean someone who tells the future). I am unsure of the 'burn' bit.
'report' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for seer that I've seen before include "I envisage" , "Person of vision" , "wise fellow" , "Sibyl" , "Oracle or prophet" .)
