CIDE DICTIONARY

catoptromancyn. [Gr. mirror + -mancy. See Catopter.].
     A species of divination, which was performed by letting down a mirror into water, for a sick person to look at his face in it. If his countenance appeared distorted and ghastly, it was an ill omen; if fresh and healthy, it was favorable.  [1913 Webster]
