DROWNING. (See [Water] and Resuscitate.) To dream you are drowning, or that you see another drowned, portends good to the dreamer; to the lover, good-tempered sweethearts and marriage; but to a girl it is a sign she should keep an eye on her lover. 54, 18, 1.

DREAMS. (See Sleep.) To dream you relate your dreams to any one, shows something unlooked for will take place. 41, 18.

DROUGHT. For a farmer or planter to dream of seeing his grass or crops drying up for want of rain, denotes that an accident will happen to him or his property during a storm, or that some of his live stock will die or meet an accident. 12.

DRINK. To dream you drink cold water, is good to all; hot, sickness and hindrance; wine, is good; sweet wine, success in love; oil, sickness; from vessels of gold, or silver, or earthenware, intends tranquillity; of horn, implies good; glass, evil. 67.

If maids do dream of drawing drink
In cellars, they may waking think,
That their sweethearts without delay,
Will leave them, and soon run away.

DRUM. To dream you hear the rolling of a drum signifies that you will be called away from your home or business unexpectedly. If you see soldiers marching when you hear the drum, it shows that though you may not have to leave, yet you will receive an unexpected message that will cause you trouble or excitement. 49.

DRUNKENNESS. To dream you are drunk, is loss in business; but success in love; to a woman, it denotes she will be beloved by a stranger; and to a man that he will be married to a rich young widow. To the married it denotes domestic bliss. To see a drunken man, shows that you will be guilty of some foolish action. 18, 20.

DUCK. To hear ducks quacking, or to see these fowls in your dream, denotes that somebody is coming to see you who is hungry, or that you will shortly have a visitor in your family who will stop to dinner. 73, 1.

DUET. To dream you sing a duet with a lady shows that you can win her if you desire. To dream you sing with a man shows you have a secret but powerful enemy, and is a sign you will never marry. To hear a duet denotes business troubles. 50, 51.

DUMB. If you dream that you are dumb, or that any of your speaking friends are so afflicted, it foretells sickness or misfortune. But should you dream that a deaf mute of your acquaintance speaks, it foretells joy and gladness at something that will happen. 14.
