REPOSE, by MARTHA NEWSOM
First Line: Oh hours
Last Line: For toil.
Subject(s): Sleep
First Line: Oh hours
Last Line: For toil.
Subject(s): Sleep
Oh Hours,
So overfilled
With clam'rous cogent chores,
When shall I find voluptuous
Repose?
Yet stay --
Perhaps too soon,
My duties all complete,
I shall be vainly desolate
For toil.
