For a young man to dream of admiring a pretty girl, is a sign he will marry a simpleton: if a girl dreams she has a nice and pretty-looking lover, she will be apt to take up with a putty-head. Here is an ancient rhyming prediction:
To dream you love a girl who’s pretty, Foretells that you’ll in sorrow part; But if you dream she’s wise and witty, She’ll be the darling of your heart!
Take a question into your day.
