To Sleep
Shutting with careful fingers and
benign2
Our gloom-pleased eyes, embower'd from the light,
Enshaded in forgetfulness divine;
O soothest Sleep! if so it please thee, close,
In midst of this thine
hymn3, my willing eyes,
Or wait the amen, ere thy poppy throws
Then save me, or the passèd day will shine
Upon my pillow, breeding many
woes5;
Save me from curious conscience, that still lords
And seal the hushèd casket of my soul.
