To lose one, omens a broken engagement through no fault of yours.
To see torn ones, foretells that lovers' quarrels will reach such straits that reconciliation will be improbable if not impossible.
To see them soiled, foretells that you may be corrupted by indiscriminate associations.
To see pure white ones in large lots, foretells that you will resist the insistent flattery of unscrupulous and evil-minded persons, and therefore gain entrance into high relations with love and matrimony.
To see them colored, could denote that while your engagements may not be strictly moral, you will manage them with such ingenuity that they will elude opprobrium.
If you see silk handkerchiefs, it could denote that your pleasing and magnetic personality will shed its radiating cheerfulness upon others, making for yourself a fortunate existence.
