The Sanguine Temperament of Youth
Genesis 37:5-11
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brothers: and they hated him yet the more.…


It is worthy of remark, that Joseph's visions were such as predicted only advancement and honour; his perils and imprisonment formed no part of his dreams. At this stage of the history, we are reminded of the sanguine hopes and lively anticipations which usually animate the minds of the young.

(T. Gibson.)
