Come, Sleep!

Come, Sleep! O Sleep, the certain knot of peace,
The baiting-place of wit, the balm of woe,
The poor man's wealth, the prisoner's release,
Th' indifferent judge between the high and low; ...

— Sir Philip Sidney (1554-1586)


Sleep is a reconciling,
A rest that peace begets:
Doth not the sun rise smiling
When fair at e'en he sets? ...

— John Dowland (1563-1626)


Actually, sleep came quite nicely last night. I feel great today. Amazing what a good night of rest can do for a person!
