Actually he dreamt about a woman, the first woman in the universe, grown from his own limbs. A tree grows from a kernel. Adam saw the woman molding, taking shape gradually, from a deep bone of his being. The eyes closed, he saw the woman materializing and getting a human appearance, but slightly differentiated from himself. He opened his eyes and said : " This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh !… " ( from chapter 4)
