To dream that you take laudanum, signifies weakness of your own; and that you will have a tendency to be unduly influenced by others. You should cultivate determination.
To prevent others from taking this drug, indicates that you will be the means of conveying great joy and good to people.
To see your lover taking laudanum through disappointment, signifies unhappy affairs and the loss of a friend.
To give it, slight ailments will attack some member of your domestic circle.
Take a question into your day.
