Perspiration
Perspiration — the sweat of exertion and strain — often touches coming out of a difficulty that caused much gossip with new honours. The dream may ask where you're laboring through something that's set tongues wagging, and whether the effort dripping off you now is carrying you toward vindication on the far side of the strain.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for perspiration, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that you are in a perspiration, foretells that you will come out of some difficulty, which has caused much gossip, with new honors.
