Summary

Portrait of John Dowland John Dowland,  Come, heavy Sleep (1597)

“ And close up these my weary weeping eyes:
Whose spring of tears doth stop my vital breath,
And tears my heart with Sorrow's sigh-swoll'n cries:
Come and possess my tired thought-worn soul,
That living dies, till thou on me be stole.
