Now, Blessings Light On Him That First Invented Sleep!Ê It Covers A Man All Over, Thoughts And All, Like A Cloak; It Is Meat For The Hungry, Drink For The Thirsty, Heat For The Cold, And Cold For The Hot.Ê It Is The Current Coin That Purchases All The Pleasures Of The World Cheap, And The Balance That Sets The King And The Shepherd, The Fool And The Wise Man, Even.
