PLASTER. For a girl to dream of having a plaster on her person is a sign that some one will offer her an insult, or perhaps make an attempt upon her chastity: if a man dreams this, the same will probably happen to his wife or sweetheart. 72, 8.

PLENTY. (See [Abundance].)

PLOW. (See [Husbandry].)

PLOWING. For a farmer to dream that he is plowing on smooth and even ground, denotes heavy crops, and good luck generally: if he plows up stones it is all the better, but if his plow gets hitched into a rock or stump, it denotes vexation and trouble with his good luck. 41.

PLUMS. To dream of an abundance of this fruit is a sign of health but yet you are liable to lose your life by an accident: if a girl dreams she is presented with plums, it foretells her early death. 36, 14, 77.

POCKET-BOOK. To dream of finding a pocket-book full of money is a sign of riches, but if it contains no money, it foretells a disappointment: if you dream you lose your pocket-book, it foreshadows success in business. 19, 78.

POET. If any young person should be so silly as to dream of writing poetry, it foretells poverty; and for one to dream of having a poetical lover or sweetheart, is a sign that they will fall in love with a fool. 64, 50.

POISON. To dream that you are poisoned is a sign you will get into bad or unworthy company: if you imagine that any friend or acquaintance is poisoned, it is a similar omen as regards them: if, in your dream, you think any one has given you poison to murder you, it foretells that some base proposal will be made to you. 3, 9.

POLE-CAT. If a man dream he sees one, he will marry a beautiful woman; if a woman, she will marry a handsome man. If this delightful animal make an attack on you it is a sign you will suffer from the slander of enemies. 68, 2.

POLICE. If any respectable person dreams of being arrested by police officers, it is a sign that some distinguished honor will be conferred on him: if a young girl should dream that policemen took her lover into custody, she will hear of his advancement in the world. 46, 30.
