PENS. To dream of writing with a steel pen, is a sign you will get yourself into a bad scrape, by tattling about your friends and neighbors. If the pen be gold, it foreshadows good news, and success in business and love affairs. To dream you are making a quill pen, is a sign you have many enemies, but that you will triumph over them, and be successful in all you undertake. But this dream does not amount to much, as it is only a  “set-off” to dreaming of a pen-knife, which is a bad omen. 28, 6. PEPPERS. To dream of picking pepper-pods, foretells to married people smart children, if they have any. A girl who dreams this, will have a smart man for a lover, but he will not pet her much either as a sweetheart or wife. 9. PERFUMERY. To dream of pleasant and delicate perfumes, foreshadows sluttish habits in a woman: if a lover dreams of perfumes in connection with the beloved object, it shows that when he marries, he will find her to be a slut. A girl who dreams this, will be apt to have a shiftless lover. 71, 1. PERJURY. To dream that any one injures you by false swearing, or by perjury in court, is a sign that you will discover some friend or acquaintance to be dishonest, or guilty of a crime, or of mean conduct; if a girl dream this, it is a similar omen relative to her lover. 52. PET. If a girl dreams she has a pet animal of any kind, (a child, of course, excepted,) it is a sign she will never marry: if she dreams of a pet child, or one whom she adores, it foretells for her a prolific marriage. 49. PHYSIC. (_See Medicine._) In a dream-book published 1751, is this prediction:  “If any man doth dreme he taketh much physicke, it foretelleth a bad lyver, and a quarell with ye doctor; but a virgin who dremeth this dreme, will marry ye doctor first, and quarell thereafter.” 37, 8. PIANO. To dream of hearing pleasant and lively tunes on the piano, is a sign of thrift and domestic happiness; but if you dream of buying, or that any one presents you with a piano, it foreshadows poverty; it is a bad omen for a girl to dream she has got a new piano. 72. PICKLES. If a girl dreams of eating pickles, it is a sign some old bachelor will kiss her: if a young man dreams of pickles, he will be beloved by a maid older than himself, and probably of a sour and crabbed temper. 39, 2. PICNIC. For a young man to dream of going with a pic-nic party into the woods, is a sign that some silly girl will fall in love with him: if a young girl dreams this, some vain fellow will probably pay her attentions and compliments merely to gratify his own vanity. 37, 12. PICTURES. To dream of seeing pictures is a sign of joy without profit. 48, 7. PIES. To dream of eating pie is a sign that you will soon be in want. To dream you are making pies is a sign of pleasure and happiness. 38. PIGEONS. To dream of pigeons is a sign of content and delight, and success in business. 39.
