    How happy he whose toil
    Has o'er his languid pow'rless limbs diffus'd
    A pleasing lassitude; he not in vain
    Invokes the gentle Deity of dreams.
    His pow'rs the most voluptuously dissolve
    In soft repose; on him the balmy dews
    Of Sleep with double nutriment descend.

Sleep hath its own world,
A boundary between the things misnamed
Death and existence: Sleep hath its own world,

And dreams in their development have breath,
And tears and tortures, and the touch of joy.
