R.4TES OF ND ER 1YSLNG,
ODE To THE BED.
BY THE LaT1 THOMAS HOOD.

Oh, Bed. oh, Bed, deliciou. Bed.
That heaven upon earth to the weary head.
But place that Ia name would he ill-hrei,
To the head with wakeiul trouble
'Tis held by such different lease.
To one place of comfort and case,
All stuffed with the down OF stuhhle geese,
To another with only the stubble.
To one, n perfect Ila!cyon nest,
All calm, and balm, and quiet, and rest,
And soft as the fur OF the concv-
To another SO restless Tor body and head,
That the bed seems borrowed from Ncttehed,
And the pillow from Suatlord the stony.
To the happy, a iirs,-cla.s carriage OF ease,
To the land of Nod, or where YOU pleae
But, alas. for the watchers and ~eepcrs,
Who, turn. and turn, and turn again.
But turn, and turn, and turn IN vain.
With an ANXIOUS brain, and thoughts IN train,
That do not run upon sicepcrs'
Wide awake n. the housing owl,
Night-hawk, or other nocturnal fowl,
But more proiitless vglls keeping,
Wide awake in the dark they stare,
Filling with phanloms the vacant afr.
As ii that crook ed back ed tvrani, Care,
Had plotted TO kill them sleeping.
And oh when the blessed diurna ligh,
is quench'd BY the providen,al night,
To render our slnmbcr more certain,
Pity, pity the wrefches that weep,
For they mast be wretched who cannot sleep,
When God himself draws the curtain.
The careful Betty the pillow beats.
And airs the blankets and smooths the sheets,
Aud gives the mairass shaking
But vainly Betty performs her part.
il ruiled head and rumplea heart
As well as the couch want making.
Theio's Morbid, allhilc. and veriuce. and nerves
Where other people would make preserves,
lie turns his fruit into pickles:
Jealous. cnsious. and ircitn hy day.
At night 10 his own SHARP iancics prey,
IL lies like n hedgehog rolled mp the wrong way
Tornon,ing himself with his pTiekles.
Ra, a chili--,hat bids the world good nigh,
In downright earnest, and cuts It quite
a chernb no art can copy
Wis a perfect picture IL STE him lie.
As II he had supp'i on dornouse pie,
Gan ancient classical dish. by the bt.)
With sauce OF syrup or poppy
Oh, Bed. oh, Bed. delicious Bed.
That heaven upon earth 10 the weary head,
Whether lofty or low lis condition..
But instead Of putting our plaques on shelves,
I'm our blankets how Oft We toss ourselves,
Or tossed bv such allegorcal elves
As Pride, Hate, Creed and Ambition.
