In her very first turn, the sky with misty scenes and an _airship_ were traced well up in the lines surrounding the lady.
High, sailing hopes, said the reader. You are gifted beyond the ordinary. You love books, study and art; do not yet care for any domestic duties. You are in cloud-lands.
In her second toss, the reading was as follows:
You are a little more practical. Here is formed a dusting-brush, also a _kitchen_ and yard with a happy family of _chickens_, meaning cares and pets; also a _horse_ and _sleigh_. You love luxuries. You have traveled over land and seas. The _ferry-boat_ is here.
I read now in your third, the certainty, though not fully, noting some of the minor events. Everything has changed from your present thinking. You have climbed the ladder to some public recognition by the influence of friends. You have yet much to achieve--will become a real benefactress. So I read by the people before you. The two _stars_ yet beyond, and the _sword_ which belongs to your family, represent some hero in wars yet to be.
The national bird, either an _eagle_ or _turkey_, promises good results.
The trials of others will fall upon you, all through life. Your views here are full of the different objects. A tall visitor will give you a surprise, attended by coming pleasure, and a new friend; also a _foe_--a _spider_. You have been disappointed in three different forms, one is yet to entail a financial loss_--fish_, you see, have their heads and tails cut off; and the _rings_ are broken for some past and present enterprise. You are learning mental philosophy, also, from a male relative to whom you are very dear.
How truly and wonderfully you have read! I have also gained an idea how to trace and to hold the mind in other special desires. Thanks to you for this lesson.
The next was a dainty, little, self-conscious lady, who is desirous of some special, social accomplishment, aside from her sisters. She is very cunning. See the little head of the _fox_ near her, though vexations are with her now, yet the three similar little straight forms, or lines, are realizations, as in this cup, of some pleasant event. The _road_ here in view, a short and agreeable journey, upon which you meet a lady friend who is to visit you soon. These upper _dots_ are letters and small packages near at hand, with two little _hearts_--love secrets.
