Of Sleep. The sentence of Aristotle

Halfe of our life is spent in sleape:
in sleepe no difference is
Betweene the wealthy wight, and hym
that welth doth want and misse.
Now Cræsus thou riche caitiffe king,
though huge thy substaunce were:
Yet Irus poore in halfe his life,
did like to thee appeere.
