is named common lyke as that also is whiche receiueth the deade besides in this place happeneth the corruption of many mens seedes Wherfore that place is worthi lickned to death although those womē haue or be nothing lyke of signification with the place commō For they signify good for the moore part but the place is and signifyethe euill and harme whereof these harlottes that wāder aboute be commodiouser to be seene in the dreame then the others And if any thinketh in his dreame to haue carnally to doo wyth a straunge or vnknowen woman if she shal appeare to hym fayre and gentle to haue

she shal be an ould or foule or defourmed woman and wearinge on vnclenlye and ragged apparell doth denounce that hee whiche seeth the dreame shall after leade his lyfe in heauynes and sorrow And

rotte and these whych hyde them they do manifeste for that sauoure and smell And to weare a garlande trimmed wythe lyllyes that they differ and put of matters vnto a hope And the flowre of Mallowes in a Garlande signifyeth good to gardners and husbandemē but to others it portendeth labours and wandringe aboute And the same significatiō is of Tyme Sauerye and Melilote excepte to Phisitions to whom they portende good but a Garlād made of smalach or els our cōmon parceley doth slee sick personnes and in a wauer those whiche be vexed with water rūninge betweene the skinne and fleshe for the

there were as well poore men seruauntes and prisoners beynge sicke that dreamed to bee clothed in blacke who notwithstandinge after died For very like it was that those weere not caryed foorth to

thunder ensueth not yt causeth a vayne feare And further to se fyre in the skye cleare pure and litle doth signify threatnings of some noble estates But to many this dreame portēdeth the incursion of enemyes pouertye honger And besides wheresoeuer the fyre shal be or where it is carried vp as from the North South West or East from thense enemyes come or els neare those regions or countryes dearth shall be But worst of all shal be to see fire to be caryed or shewed openly the same also signifye fyre lyke to torche lyght falling f●om heauen also to see wood burninge trees whiche altogether threaten perill or daunger aboute his head which seeth the dreame And lightninge wythout tempeste passinge neare by and not touchinge the bodye that person whiche seeth it shal after bee driuen oute of those places in whiche hee dwelte For no man can sustayne and abyde the lightenynge commynge neare hym But if the lyghtninge shal seeme to fal before any it doth prohibit hym vtterly to go foorth And to be stricken wyth lightninge dooth promyse to hym whiche lackethe a wyfe to marrye one whether hee be poore or els ryche But beynge maryed it declareth the seperation of his wyfe from hym the lyke also of bretheren frendes kynsfolkes and acquayntance to become enemyes to hym For lightning doth not ioin together but they ioined together in one it seperateth And further hauinge children it doth depryue or take awaye children in asmuche as they dye yf he bee sicke to this that hee is smytten wyth lyghtninge or otherwyse they fall if he be not sicke For trees wher they be striken with lightning they dy lease their branches And lyke as the branches be the children of the trees euen soe bee the children the braunches of men And a certayne man there was who thoughte in his dreame that the outward post or pillor of the bed was smytten and consumed wyth lyghtening and not long after dyed his wyfe And he that thinketh in his dreame to se vsuall fyer smal cleare soft burninge signifyeth good but to see a much and ouer greate fyre doth portende euill Therefore the best fire is that whiche on the earth is seene to burne pure cleare for this signifyeth muche ric●es because a redy fyre in the hearth is chieflye occupied about dressing of meates but the same fyre put out doth threatē pouerty and if anye be sicke in that house it doth pronounce deathe to him And good it is to thinke himselfe to haue Torches or lyke lightes burninge and especially thys to yonge men For it signifieth for the more parte ioyous loues to them and promyseth also pleasaunte actions But to see hymselfe hauinge one torche is euill that coueteth to hyde hym And the lanterne lyght clear burning in the house is good for it signifyeth to all persons the attayninge to wealthe and riches and to those vnmaryed it promiseth maryage and to sicke persons health But not cleare burninge but darkely signifyeth sorrowes heauines of mynd sicke persons not lōg after it fleeth the lyght put out it recouereth and amendeth them for that afterwarde it shal be lighted agayn And any lanterne light seene in a barke or shippe doth portend after a great quietnesse and calme of the wind And further the gates of the house burning do signify the death of the wyse his lyfe also to bee in a hasard or in daūger which seeth the dream And he that thinketh in his dreame to se greehoundes huntyng or takyng what or already taken going out to hunt signifyeth good for they be signifyers of the actiōs but those whiche returne vnto the cytty or towne do signify the hyndraunce of actiōs for thē they cesse of their labor And masty dogs or others that onelye kepe the house doe signifye the wyues and seruauntes other goodes gotten together Wherefore they beynge lusty fawning
formes doth signifie that the bodies not to bee altered this also is vntrue because this maye happen when the melancholie humoure lyke to the sande doth purge cause cleare visible spirites and then althoughe the clearenes of the formes doth declare the goodnes of these sences yet is the cause euill in it selfe beecause it declareth the dominion of that humour Nor it is to be doubted when similytudes appeare darklye or shadowed with cloudes but that they maye declare a troublinge of the visible spirites and when those tende vnto a witnes then do they signifye mattery humors and when the shadow appeareth smal then doth the harme soone ceasse and when it sheweth to the syght as water or earthe then the harme shal bee the greuousser and the flower apte to bee resoined But wher some affirme when the sleeaper dreameth to see starres shadowed with fyer or by a thynne cloude that the same doth argue the dominion of choller whiche rather maye declare an indisposition of the eyes eyther present or to come And wher they also afirme that when the starres appeare to the dreamer that they are so busted that they can not bee decerned of him that the same is a note of death especially if the personne then dreamynge the lyke should be sicke as though the stars coulde not then helpe hym But this trulye is rather a matter to bee laughed at that to prognosticate death of the impedimente of fight Yet certaine doo allowe when the starres seame to the dreamer to moue swiftlye that thē they prognosticate great Ire or madnes to ensew and that the inordinate motions also of theym to declare sadnes and heauines to ensue For the selfe same doothe the inordinat motion of any matter argewe And graunte that the order shoulde declare the goodnes of the organe yet rather dothe it expresse the disposition of the powers of the sensitiue spirit or of naturall heat Wherefore in the like matters are the other qualityes and proporc●ions of thinges referred to the dreamer considered Certain demaundes and their answers both of sleepe and of those matters through which some time we dreame ANd firste why olde men do not so well sleepe and dreame the lyke as yonge men do seeinge they take more rest Unto which Auerrois thus answearethe that for so much as olde men are of coulde complexion althoughe they maye feede sufficiently yet haue they naturall heat ouer weake in theim so that they can not well digeste the same and of this the fumes of the meat in the stomacke are not sente vpwarde But the yong men haue naturall heat intensed through which they diggest their meate wel and of this send vp much fume out of the stomacke vnto the braine whiche cause theym so to dreame Why is it when in the dreame appeareth some fearefull matter that then the personne sweateth and waketh vpō the same Unto which the philospher thus answereth that to the man appeareth then that terrible matter to be present aud wyth enemies And nature also beyng careful of y health of man doth both send forth heate and spirites from the harte vnto the outward members So that nature iudgeth it suche a ferefull matter disagreeing to the man that throughe the concourse of the spirites about the harte the harte of this is wrong together and the mā therby weakened of the same Why men commonly are not wont to dreame in the beginning of the night To which the Philosopher thus answereth that the firste digestion is then occupyed in whiche the sumes of the meate muche ingrossed are sent vp that mightely stop and so cause the persō that he cannot thē dreame And those also stop the passages not onely to the outward sences but vnto ●he organe the keper of tymes Whye affirmeth Aristole thar a wicked person often foreseethe euil dreames To whiche is thus answered that as the condicion of the wickednes dooth incline and dispose the persone vnto the often cōsiderynge of the same euen so is bee moued to dreame those thinges whiche were a good whyles together thought vpon in the day tyme in that they soner come to mynde Soo that the luxuriouse person is often m●oued to dreame of women the drunkarde of sundrye wyues and y theefe of sundry thefts Why dreames which are caused in the morning be parfiter● and to more reason then the others in the night tyme To which the philosopher answeereth that in the morning the midle deuision betweene y common sēce and the Organe reseruatiue is sufficient quiet throughe whiche the fumes of the meat eleuated then are sufficiente weake and of thi●s cause trewer and parfytter dreames Whye it is th t at to a manne beeynge a sleepe appeare he that hee flyeth or falleth from an highe place To whiche the philosopher thus answeare the that the same proceadethe of the indisposition of the humors of certeine spyrites and vapoures Whereof in the body sometimes ●●che fumes are very lighte and of this ●use the man to thinke that he flyeth But somtimes the fumes are ouer grosse ●nd cooled by the brayne and do then disend to the harte and through this it see●eth then to the mā that he falleth from highe verye deepe Why is it that a man sometimes dreameth of those thinges whiche in all his ●yfe he neuer possessed nor saw To which ●he philosopher thus aunswereth that in ●he slepe is a certayne compositiō of fan●asies through whiche composition such ●ppearance is called Lyke as when any ●haunge the kynd of golde on a hyll then ●o him appeareth in his slepe to haue sene ● golden hill Whye is it that the similitudes of ●hinges sometymes in the sleepe dooe appeare broken and sometymes defouremed The reasone of this is in that the ●otte vapour is hindered to be shed forth ●hat seeketh the Uentricle or Organe in which the similitudes are wherefore of y troubled they are then not perceiued ●nder a proper forme for that they may ●omtymes be caused of those which were neuer perceiued or decerned and that heauelye sleapyng they dreame nothing 〈◊〉 that the powers of the spyrite or the imaginatiue is hindred to passe vnto the act● And by the same reasone in a manner some dreame nothynge al their lyfe tym becaue the plenty or aboundance of moi●stures causeth the grosser spirites and 〈◊〉 confoundeth the similitudes But A●●stotle doth attribute this to a drines an● coldnes of complexion for these as th● philosopher affirmeth do hinder the asc●●ding of vapours whiche like happene●● to olde persones by reason of age Whye is it that some persones neu●● dreame nor dreamed all their lyfe tyme The philosopher thus aunsweareth th●● suche personnes are either ouer moiste 〈◊〉 quality and the braine to much running so that the kyndes cannot abyde or such are ouer dry that the kyndes in them ca● not be imprinted So that in both sortes the Organe is ouer muche vnquieted Why doth it sometme appeare to vs that the

vppon do portēd a good keping of that house as well of the wyfe as of the housholde the water dyeth And to see greate flyinge byrdes signifye more prophet to rich mē thē to the pore But the small and fatt byrdes be moste profitable to poore men And further to se an Egle sitting on a stone or tree or els in a moste high place is good to them goinge foorth to doe a dede but to suche fearynge this dreame euill and a strayer away also it bryngeth backe agayne And an Egle sittyng on his heade which seeth the dreame doth pronoūce death to hym For what euer it hath seasoned on wyth the calons it sleeth And to be caryed on an Eagle doothe promise death boothe to kynges nobles of a realme and rich men And the Egle threatninge what doth signifye the thretninges of a man of power But gentle of

shippes althoughe anye shall sayle well in them yet they bringe not goodes home and to their porte wythout feare And that is also better to thinke to sayle by the sea then by lande for to sayle by land doth signifye goodes the slowelier and hardliar to come and that scarcelye shal come at all But worser is that any sayling by sea doth sodaynly fall or happen into a tempeste then if by the lande

whence soeuer fyet is caryed into the ship from thence it foorsheweth the tempest to come And the sunne from the East rising vp cleare and fayre settinge the lyke in the Weste is goode to all personnes and to others also it portendeth actions and to others the generation of children But hurteth those whiche go● aboute to hide themselfe for it reuealeth and bringeth to light al thinges And

signifyeth to hym that is learned to get money by his talk and eloquence but to riche men this dreame portēdeth the expence of money into foode and meates And if any thinkethe in his dreame that his foreteeth fal out the other grow in their places doth por●tend the chaūge of life into a better state If so be the seconde teeth shal bee better fayrer then that other afore but into a worser state if they shal bee worser fouler And he that thinketh in hys dreame to haue a reasonable tongue and congruent to the mouthe and to speake freelye and clearly with oute impediment signifyeth good to al personnes but to dreame that he cannot speake or to haue the tongue bound or tyed in the mouth doth portēd the impedimente of actions or doinges and also pouerty For as muche as pouertye dothe take

kinsman came home againe for booth be of one kynde of bloude but yf the bloud shall runne foorth into a vessell the chylde notwythstanding shall bee brought vppe and the kynsman shall lyue dwellynge in a straung countrye or oute of his countrye which also after hys cōmynge home shall dye But if it shal run downe on the grounde then both shortly after shal dye and he which dwelt out of his countrye shall go into hys owne for the bloud that is in hys grounde whyche truely in his countrye And he that thinketh in his dreame to cary or beare blod is both foolishe and to no purpose to him whiche woulde be hid for he shal be manifested and openly knowen And he that thinketh is his dreame to vomitte black or corrupte bloude doth signifye by good reason sickenes to all persons A●d hee that thinketh to vomite a little bloude in somuch that not by vomittyng but by spitting it may seeme to be cast vp doth portende sedition as hath bene obserued And to vomit choller or flewme to hym whiche is in calemity or misere or els in any perplexitye of mynde or sicknes doth signify the flakyng ceassing of the presēt euills For all the refuses of such lyke do not molest or greue any more And he that thinketh in his dreame to vomyt vp his meate or whosoeuer it be signifyeth losse and trouble of that that the bodye feleth not the sustenances or fode And who also that thinketh to cast vp
