Quotes on SLEEP




O magic sleep ! O Comfortable bird ,

That broodest o'er the trooubled sea of the mind

Till it is hush'd and smooth !


                           
                           -KEATS,  Endymion, I

Quotes on SLEEP



Wynken, Blyken, and Nod one night

   Sailed off in a wooden shoe

Sailed on a river of crystal light

   Into a sea of dew.

                     

                         -EUGENE FIELD, Wynken, Blynken, and Nod

Now I lay me down to sleep,

I pray the Lord my soul to keep;

If I should die before I wake,

I pray the Lord my soul to take.

Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,

Smiles awake  you when you rise.

Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,

And I will sing a lullaby

Roc them, rock them, lullaby.


                     -DEKKER, Patient Grissil: Lullaby

Quotes on SLEEP



O sleep ! it is a gentle thing,

  Belover from pole to pole !

To Marry Queen the praise be given !

She sent the gentle sleep from Heaven

 That slid into my soul.

Dreams of the summer night !

   Tell her, her lover keeps

Watch! while in slumbers light

  She sleeps! My lady sleeps !

Quotes on the SEA




Rocked in the cradle of the deep

I lay me down in peace to sleep;

Secure I rest upom the wave,

For thou, O Lord ! hast power to save.




             -EMMA HART WILLARD, Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep
