If a newly married lady dreams of finding a nest full of eggs, it foretells that her first born will be twins or triplets.

ELEPHANT. To dream of an elephant is a very fortunate dream, for it denotes an acquirement of riches: if you are in love, it foretells a speedy marriage with your sweetheart, and many children, chiefly boys, who will distinguish themselves by their learning. 33.
ELOPEMENT. For a young girl to dream she elopes with her beau, is a sign her parents will give their consent and she will soon be married to the one she loves. If a man dreams that he elopes with his sweetheart, it portends that he will be “cut out” by a stranger. 4, 44, 8.
ENEMY. If you dream that some one is trying to injure you, or that a person who you know is your enemy endeavors to work to your disadvantage, it foretells good fortune and success.

If you dream you see a person with a defective eye, it denotes disappointment: to see a glaring squint eye in your dream, shows that you will be defeated or crossed in some enterprise.
