WIDOW. If a girl dreams that she is a widow, it foretells that she will have many lovers: such a dream to a married woman, denotes that some man beside her husband is in love with her. 38, 60.

WIG. To dream of wearing a wig is a good omen to a bald bachelor, as it foretells that some lady has a design to catch the poor fellow, and will not scruple as to the means she uses to accomplish it: if a young man dreams of wearing a wig, it is a sign that he will sleep with his sweetheart before he marries her. 3, 6, 69.

WILL. To dream of making your will is a sign of long life, and good fortune generally: if you imagine that you make your will to give a legacy to a lady, it foretells to a man (whether married or single) that he will marry. 22.

WILLOW. To dream of weeping willows is a sign of sickness and death: if they hang over a stream, it foretells sickness only. 12, 70.

WINE. To dream of drinking wine is a sign of poverty: if a lover dreams that his sweetheart treats him to a glass of wine, it foretells that she will be an unthrifty wife. 39.

WITCH. To dream of a witch foretells that you will leave your home and sojourn among strangers: if the witch attempts to injure you, it denotes that you will be dependent upon strangers for your support. No intelligent person believes in witches, yet a great many dream of them, and the above is the horoscope of such a dream. 17.

WOLF. To dream of being chased by one of these animals, foretells that you will be cheated in a trade or bargain: if a girl dreams of being frightened by a wolf, it shows that her lover (if she has one) is a bad man, and she had better discard him; if she has no lover, some black-hearted fellow will try to make her acquaintance. 45.

WOODCHUCK. To dream of catching one of these animals, is a sign that you will be robbed, and that the thief will be detected: if you imagine you kill the woodchuck, you will probably recover your stolen property. 36, 19.

WOODS. (See [Grove] and [Picnic].)

WORK. (See [Harvest].) To dream that you were working hard, and are very tired, is a sign of sickness: if you imagine that you see men at work, it foretells a successful business. 77.
