Virgin · Heading 2131; source lines 23381–23397 · Text transcription

Original source (English)

To dream of a virgin, denotes that you will have comparative luck in your speculations. For a married woman to dream that she is a virgin, foretells that she will suffer remorse over her past, and the future will hold no promise of better things.

For a young woman to dream that she is no longer a virgin, foretells that she will run great risk of losing her reputation by being indiscreet with her male friends.

For a man to dream of illicit association with a virgin, denotes that he will fail to accomplish an enterprise, and much worry will be caused him by the appeals of people. His aspirations will be foiled through unwarranted associations.

Original source (English)

If a man dreams that he defloured a virgin, it is a sign that he will be disgraced by some act of his own: to dream of seeing the Virgin Mary, foretells that great honors await you: such a dream, to an honest business man, promises him riches and honor; but to a dishonest one, it foretells disaster.
