The Witches' Dream Book; and Fortune Teller: Embracing full and correct rules of divination concerning dreams and visions, foretelling of future events, their scientific application to physiognomy, palmistry, moles, cards, &c.; together with the application and observance of talismen charms, spells and incantations.

Dreams; Fortune-telling
The letters which compose this charm must be inscribed in a pyramidical
form, as above, on the purest white beeswax, of the ordinary thickness,
and of a size sufficiently large to admit of the letters being distinctly
written by the individual who is sick; or, if he is too sick, by his
dearest friend next at hand. Use for writing them a pen made of the quill
of a raven, and ink compounded of the smoke of a concentrated taper and
rain water. Let the party who is afflicted with the disease wear the charm
hung around his neck, enclosed in a bag of virgin parchment, during the
time that the moon performs one circuit through the twelve signs of the
zodiac, and let it be commenced on the day of the full moon. The wearer
must have full faith in Divine Omnipotence, and repeat the letters of the
talisman in some one of the different directions in which they may be
read, daily.
If it be required to perform a cure upon one at a distance, or without the
afflicted party’s knowledge thereof, write the talisman as above and then
you may perform the cure by scraping out one line of the talisman every
day with a new knife kept for the express purpose. At the scraping out of
each line, say, “So as I destroy the letters of this talisman,
_Abracadabra_, so, by virtue of this sacred name, may all grief and dolor
depart from [here mention the name of the sick person]. So I destroy this
disease. Amen.”
Many have healed divers diseases in this way; the disease wearing, little
by little, away.

FEAST OF ST. ANNE’S.
This is a hard trial, but what is not possible to any young lady who
wishes to know her lot in marriage?--that most important change in human
life.
Prepare yourself three days previous to the eve of this female saint, by
living on bread and water and sprigs of parsley, and touch no other thing
whatever, or your labor will be lost. The eve begins at the sixth hour. Go
to bed as soon as convenient, and speak not a word after you once begin to
undress; get into bed, lie on your left side with your head as low as
possible, and repeat the following verse three times:
St. Anne, in silver clouds descend,
Prove thyself a female’s friend;
Be it good or be it harm,
Let me have knowledge from the charm;
Be it husbands one, two, three,
Let me in rotation see;
And if Fate decrees me four,
(No good maid could wish far more),
Let me view them in my dream,
Fair and clearly to be seen;
But if the stars decree
Perpetual virginity,
Let me sleep on, and dreaming not,
I shall know my single lot.
MAGIC ROSE.
