Endless generations will be lost by the death of the pregnant.  
(Of the Lamentation on Good Friday.)  
Throughout Europe there will be a lamentation of great nations over  
the death of one man who died in the East.  
(Of Dreaming.)  
Men will walk and not stir, they will talk to those who are not  
present, and hear those who do not speak.  
(Of a Man's Shadow which moves with him.)  
Shapes and figures of men and animals will be seen following these  
animals and men wherever they flee. And exactly as the one moves the  
other moves; but what seems so wonderful is the variety of height  
they assume.  
(Of our Shadow cast by the Sun, and our Reflection in the Water at  
one and the same time.)  
Many a time will one man be seen as three and all three move  
together, and often the most real one quits him.  
(Of wooden Chests which contain great Treasures.)
