_Adriano_, is it day, that thou dost waken me? It may be day or night replyed _Adriano_, for both (in these fits) are alike to thee. Arise man for shame, and come to thine lodging. Then faining to be much troubled and sleepie, he arose from the hoast, and went to _Adrianoes_ bed. When it was day, and all in the house risen, the hoast began to smile at _Panuccio_, mocking him with his idle dreaming and talking in the night. So, falling from one merry matter to another, yet without any mislike at all: the Gentlemen, having their horses prepared, and their Portmantues fastened behind, drinking to their hoast, mounted on horsebacke, and they roade away towards _Florence_, no lesse contented with the manner of occasions happened, then the effects they sorted to. Afterward, other courses were taken, for the continuance of this begun pleasure with _Nicholetta_, who made her mother beleeve, that _Panuccio_ did nothing else but dreame. And the mother her selfe remembring how kindely _Adriano_ had used her (a fortune not expected by her before:) was more then halfe of the minde, that she did then dreame also, while she was waking. Talano de Molese _dreamed, That a Wolfe rent and tore his wives face and throate. Which dreame he told to her, with advise to keep her selfe out of danger; which she refusing to doe, received what followed._ The Seventh Novell. _Whereby (with some indifferent reason) it is concluded, that Dreames do not alwayes fall out to be leasings._ By the conclusion of _Pamphilus_ his Novel, wherein the womans ready wit, at a time of such necessity, carried deserved commendations: the Queen gave command to Madam _Pampinea_, that she should next begin with hers, and so she did, in this manner. In some discourses (gracious Ladies) already past among us, the truth of apparitions in dreames hath partly bin approved, whereof very many have made a mockery. Neverthelesse, whatsoever hath heeretofore bin sayde, I purpose to acquaint you with a very short Novell, of a strange accident happening unto a neighbour of mine, in not crediting a Dreame which her Husband told her.
