Telemus

Telemus (gr. Τήλεμος), a son of Eurymus, and a celebrated soothsayer. (Hom. Od. ix. 509; Ov. Met. xiii. 731; Theocrit. Idyll. vi. 23.)

Homer Odyssey 9

'Alas!
Now an ancient prophecy about me
has truly been fulfilled!  Telemus, 
fine, tall son of Eurymus, a seer
who surpassed all men in prophecy,
reached old age among the Cyclopes  
as a soothsayer.  He said all these things
would come to pass someday—I'd lose my sight
at the hand of someone called Odysseus.
