since_o the_o in_o extinguishable_a thirst_n after_o the_o future_a have_v induce_v all_o ethnic_a antiquity_n to_o feed_v fowl_n for_o augury_n to_o immolate_a sacrifice_n for_o presage_v their_o

side_n when_o every_o one_o consider_v how_o many_o fancy_n come_v into_o our_o head_n in_o sleep_n both_o sick_a and_o well_o the_o truth_n whereof_o be_v so_o rare_a that_o it_o may_v be_v compare_v

will_v be_v fit_a to_o examine_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o connexion_n or_o affinity_n between_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o dream_v and_o those_o which_o be_v to_o come_v to_o pass_v as_o there_o

experience_n have_v cause_v so_o many_o person_n to_o take_v notice_n that_o as_o for_o example_n death_n and_o marriage_n make_v a_o great_a stir_n and_o alteration_n in_o the_o house_n where_o they_o happen_v so_o the_o one_o be_v usual_o the_o indicatour_n of_o the_o other_o that_o because_o the_o hen_n make_v a_o cry_n when_o she_o lay_v her_o egg_n from_o whence_o be_v produce_v a_o chicken_n that_o cry_v too_o therefore_o egg_n signify_v brawl_n or_o quarrel_n that_o pearl_n signify_v tear_n because_o they_o resemble_v they_o that_o as_o the_o serpent_n be_v always_o

but_o by_o a_o calepine_n much_o less_o the_o interpretation_n thereof_o unfold_v the_o second_o say_v that_o dream_n be_v cause_v by_o the_o rise_n of_o vapour_n from_o the_o stomach_n to_o the_o

humour_n thus_o the_o bilious_a or_o choleric_a dream_n of_o fire_n and_o slaughter_n the_o pituitous_a or_o phlegmatic_a dream_n that_o he_o be_v swim_v fish_v or_o fall_v the_o melancholy_n see_v

thus_o the_o voluptuous_a person_n dream_v of_o delight_n and_o the_o ambitious_a of_o honour_n the_o external_a cause_n of_o dream_n be_v either_o god_n or_o angel_n and_o these_o either_o good_a

concern_v we_o these_o alone_a in_o my_o opinion_n be_v those_o that_o be_v to_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o the_o four_o say_v that_o beside_o these_o cause_n of_o dream_n there_o be_v also_o some_o corporeal_a cause_n as_o the_o temper_n of_o the_o air_n or_o the_o constitution_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o place_n to_o which_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v the_o relation_n of_o

to_o sleep_v have_v true_a dream_n together_o with_o the_o observation_n of_o aristotle_n that_o if_o a_o candle_n cast_v the_o least_o glimpse_n before_o the_o eye_n of_o such_o as_o be_v a_o sleep_n or_o a_o little_a noise_n be_v make_v near_o they_o they_o will_v dream_v that_o they_o see_v lightning_n and_o hear_v thunder_n it_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o soul_n when_o we_o be_v a_o sleep_n to_o make_v a_o elephant_n of_o a_o flie._n the_o five_o say_v that_o the_o chief_a inquiry_n in_o this_o matter_n be_v how_o any_o dream_n can_v signify_v that_o which_o be_v future_a and_o what_o connexion_n there_o be_v between_o the_o figure_n which_o dream_n represent_v to_o we_o and_o the_o thing_n signify_v to_o we_o by_o they_o for_o it_o be_v certain_a in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o

betide_v we_o whence_o it_o appear_v that_o according_a to_o this_o series_n dream_n have_v some_o great_a correspondence_n with_o those_o accident_n for_o the_o soul_n which_o know_v our_o temper_n and_o by_o necessary_a sequel_n our_o manner_n and_o action_n behold_v in_o those_o three_o together_o the_o accident_n of_o our_o life_n which_o be_v annex_v represent_v and_o contain_v potential_o
