Bonnet
The bonnet frames and partly conceals the face, and the old books read it as touching gossip and slanderous insinuation, against which a woman should guard. The dream tends to touch what is whispered behind the brim, and to ask where talk is circling us, and what we might do to shield ourselves from it.
