| Job 20:8 | As a dream that fleeth away, he shall not be found; he shall pass as a vision of the night: | Fleeth. The poets assign wings to sleep and to dreams. (Homer, etc.) Isaias (xxix. 7.) describes a man who dreams that he is eating, and finds himself hungry when he awakes. Such is the live of the avaricious, (Calmet) and of all wicked people.
