Brimstone

Brimstone carries the reek of judgement and discreditable dealing, and in dreams it can mark losing friends through dishonourable conduct. The dream tends to touch the acrid consequence of having done wrong, and to ask what dealings of ours have begun to smell of sulphur, and what they may cost us in the trust of others.

Miller 1901
