INSOMNIA by EDITH MATILDA THOMAS

First Line: A HOUSE OF SLEEPERS - I, ALONE UNBLEST
Last Line: OH, LET ME HOT BE LAST TO FALL ASLEEP!
Subject(s): INSOMNIA; LIFE; SLEEPLESSNESS;

A HOUSE of sleepers -- I, alone unblest,
Am yet awake and empty vigil keep.
When these, who spend life's day with me, find rest,
Oh, let me hot be last to fall asleep!
