In the latter half of
In the latter half of January 1876, Don Bosco had a symbolic dream which he mentioned to several Salesians. One of them, Father Barberis, urged him to tell it at a "Good Night" because the boys loved to hear his dreams, which greatly benefited them and made them feel closer to the Oratory.
The saint duly mounted the platform after night prayers, his beaming countenance revealing, as always, his joy at being with his sons. When everybody quieted down, Father Barberis raised his hand. "Excuse me, Don Bosco," he said, "may I ask you a question?"
"Certainly."
"I heard that recently you had a dream about seeds, sowers, and hens and that you told the cleric Calvi about what you saw. Would you kindly tell us too?”
"Aren't you nosy!" Don Bosco replied in mock rebuke that provoked general laughter.
"I won't mind your calling me nosy, so long as you tell us the dream," Father Barberis insisted. "I think all the boys back me up, and I am sure that they are most eager to hear you."
"In that case, I will tell you. I had intended to keep it to myself because of some things which concern some of you personally, things which might even make you uneasy, but since you asked for it, I will narrate it."
