11.

Be of good heart, and let thy sleep be sweet,

Ladurlad said, . . Alas! that cannot be

To one whose days are days of misery.

How often did she stretch her hands to greet

Ereenia, rescued in the dreams of night!

How oft amid the vision of delight,

Fear in her heart all is not as it seems;

Then from unsettled slumber start, and hear

The Winds that moan above, the Waves below!

Thou hast been call’d, O Sleep! the friend of Woe,

But ’tis the happy who have call’d thee so.
