Revenge
Revenge — the wish to repay a wrong — often touches a weak, uncharitable nature that, ungoverned, brings trouble and lost friends, with much to fear if others avenge themselves on you. The dream may ask where a desire to get even is hardening in you, and whether the grudge is costing you more in peace than the injury did.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for revenge, 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 of taking revenge, is a sign of a weak and uncharitable nature, which if not properly governed, will bring you troubles and loss of friends.
If others revenge themselves on you, there will be much to fear from enemies.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of revenging an injury, is a sign of disgrace: if, in your dream, you imagine that you have caused any one to be locked up in prison from motives of revenge, it predicts that you yourself will be imprisoned for some degrading act.
