“I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.” Psalm 4:8 . “For such men justly hope for all manner of estrangement of mind from things mortal, and forgetfulness of this world’s miseries; which is beautifully and prophetically signified under the name of sleep and rest, where the most perfect peace cannot be interrupted by any tumult.
