22 INTERPRETATION OF DREAMS. Beard. To dream you have a very little beard, signifies suits at law—for a lawyer to dream he has a long thick beard, is a good dream—for a young maiden to dream she has a beard, it is a sign she will soon marry a kind husband—for a married woman, that she will lose her husband—for a person to dream of his beard falling out, he will lose some dear relative, or he come to disgrace. Belly. To dream one’s belly is bigger and fuller than ordinary, shows his family and estate will increase. If one dreams his belly is grown lean and shrunk up, he will be joyfully delivered of some bad accident. If any one dreams that his belly is swelled, and yet notwithstanding be empty, he will become poor, though he be rich in the esteem of many people in the world. Belly-Ache. If any one dreams his belly aches, he will be afflicted in his family, and have many cares upon him. Birds. To dream you see many birds, signifies assemblies and suits at law. To dream of catching birds by lime twigs, or with nets, shows the entrapping or ensnaring of enemies by deceitful means. To dream of great birds is better for the rich than the poor. To dream of little birds, the contrary. To dream that you hear birds chirp is a good sign. To see birds fighting, signifies adversity. To see birds fly over your head, signifies prejudice by enemies. To see black birds, signifies trouble. To hear birds sing is joy and delight. Birds’ Nests. To dream that you find one is a good sign. To dream that you find one without either eggs or birds, shows you will meet with great disappointment. Birding. To dream you catch birds signifies profit and pleasure. Bleeding. To dream of bleeding at the nose signifies loss of goods, and decay of riches, to those that are plegmatic and melancholy ; but to the choleric and sanguine, it signifies health and joy. Blind. To dream of being blind shows a man shall be admonished to foresee his errors and avoid them, especially in love affairs. This dream also threatens the dreamer with want of money, when a man at noonday cannot see a penny in his purse, which is a common kind of blindness. Blood. To dream you vomit blood of a good colour, is good for him that is poor, for he shall get store of money. It is also very good for him that has no children, and whose kindred are in a strange country ; the first shall see a child of his own ; the other his kindred returning home. To dream you vomit cor rupt blood is sickness to all.
