全都依靠我治愈了。不久之后我自己病得很危重，梦见一位淡妆的中年妇人，拿着盒子盛着一丸红色药丸，把药放进我嘴里就离开了，于是大汗淋漓而醒来，口中还有药香，病就好了。后来又因为劳作过早，突然晕倒，我的妹妹刚十七岁，哭着向天祈祷，想要割下大腿肉来救我，但我已经苏醒，妹妹因此受到惊吓便吐血。至今回想起来，惭愧得无以为报。从此以后，冬天才开始穿棉絮衣物。壬寅年患病，高热严重时梦见日月同时挂在天上，且有带子垂下，我双手拉住两条带子摇晃它们，日月都晃动起来，于是惊醒，出汗后痊愈。丙午年酷热，而应酬非常繁忙，起初患满头暑疮，接着患痢疾，又患疟疾，发热时总是梦见乘风飞行，告诉痊愈之时凌空上升至霄汉，忽然坠入深渊沐浴，汗出如涌泉般醒来。丁未年续娶。己酉夏天，钱塘沈悦亭秀才邀请我去诊治陈秀才的疫病，病情已垂危。我起初不知道他兼患梅毒，略微不在意，吸入了秽毒，回家后立刻生病。虽然服用了故孝子张君养之的药而痊愈，当时梦见身体化为异类，遍体鳞甲，在深渊中游泳，腾云而上，恰好听到雨声如注而觉醒，汗如雨下，而天上雨水竟然连续几日不停，江浙因此成灾，也是奇事啊。此后才开始穿丝绸衣物。乙卯年携带家眷返回籍贯。丙辰年秋末，在省城寓所生病。十月初六夜晚，梦见法华山准备冠服、车马随从，迎接我去任职，我便高兴地穿戴好冠带离去，走出钱塘门，经过昭庆寺，看见老少妇女数百人手持香火拦阻，于是停下马车，不久东岳大帝传令送归，我便返回寓所，刚到门口，一跌倒而醒来。这个梦更是奇怪，终究不知道后来怎样？唉，幸好多次免于灾难。附录在这里，以保存梦境记录。
All were cured by me. Subsequently, I fell critically ill myself. In a dream, I saw a middle-aged woman with light makeup holding a box containing a red pill. She placed the pill into my mouth and left. I then woke up in a profuse sweat, still smelling the medicinal fragrance in my mouth, and the illness subsided. Later, due to overexertion too early, I suddenly fainted. My younger sister, only seventeen years old, wept and prayed to Heaven, wishing to cut flesh from her thigh to save me, but I had already regained consciousness. The sister, terrified by the incident, subsequently vomited blood. Reflecting on this to this day, I feel ashamed and unable to repay her kindness. From then on, I began wearing cotton wadding in winter. In the Renyin year, while suffering from an illness, during periods of intense heat, I dreamed that both the sun and moon hung in the sky, with ribbons hanging down. I grasped the two ribbons with my hands and shook them; the sun and moon moved accordingly. I then woke up startled, sweating, and recovered. In the Bingwu year, amidst extreme heat and heavy social engagements, I first developed summer sores covering my forehead, followed by dysentery, and then malaria. During feverish episodes, I often dreamed of riding the wind. When told I would recover, I imagined soaring through the clouds to the highest heavens, then suddenly falling into an abyss for a bath, waking up with sweat pouring out like a gushing spring. In the Dingwei year, I remarried. In the summer of the Jiyu year, Shen Yueting, a Xiucai (scholar) from Qiantang, invited me to examine Chen, another Xiucai, who was suffering from an epidemic disease in a critical condition. Initially unaware that he also suffered from syphilis (plague sore), I was somewhat careless, inhaled the foul toxin, and fell ill immediately upon returning home. Although I recovered after taking medicine prescribed by the late filial son Mr. Zhang Yangzhi, I dreamed at that time that my body transformed into a different creature, covered in scales, swimming in a deep abyss, and rising on clouds. I awakened just as rain sounded like a torrent, sweating as if drenched by rain, while it actually rained continuously for several days, causing disasters in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. This was indeed a marvel. From then on, I began wearing silk garments. In the Yimao year, I took my family back to our ancestral home. In the late autumn of the Bingchen year, I fell ill in my residence in the provincial capital. On the night of October 6th, I dreamed that Mount Fahuahua had prepared official hats, robes, carriages, and attendants to welcome me to my post. Joyfully, I donned my hat and belt and departed. Passing through Qiantang Gate and Zhaoqing Temple, I saw hundreds of men, women, and children holding incense to block my way. I stopped the carriage. Soon, the Lord of Mount Dongyue transmitted orders to send me back, so I returned to my residence. Upon reaching the gate, I stumbled and woke up. This dream was even more peculiar; ultimately, I do not know what happened later. Alas, I have been spared many times. I append this here to preserve the record of these dreams.
