第2596章 LXIII

"Sweet sleep with promised peace my soul did buoy, But I to bitter warfare wake anew;

Sweet sleep but brought with it fallacious joy, But -- sure and bitter -- waking ills ensue.

If falsehood so delight and truth annoy, Never more may I see or hear what's true!

If sleeping brings me weal, and watching woe, The pains of waking may I never know!
