Copperas

Copperas — a bitter, corrosive salt — often touches the sting of being wronged unintentionally, a harm that distresses even where no malice was meant. The dream may ask where an unwitting hurt is costing you, and how to hold the loss without hardening against someone who never meant to wound you.

Miller 1901
