that when he returned home after his
brilliant and exhaustive defense Of
Queen Caroline. he went at once to
bed. with orders not to be disturbed,
however long he might sleep-orders

afterward declared that this sleep had
saved him from brain fever, and
though probably only the marvelously
reouperative powers of youth enabled
him to take natures remedy in one
such mighty dose. his extraordinary
capacity to work up to extreme old

such means for repairing at night the
