    At the portcullis, at thy castle gate,
    Longing to see the charmed door of dreams
    Turn on its noiseless hinges, delicate sleep!

Silent as though they watched the sleeping Earth!

How happy he whose toil
Has o'er his languid pow'rless limbs diffus'd

In soft repose; on him the balmy dews
Of Sleep with double nutriment descend.
