Sluggard


Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep. Proverbs, Chap. xxiv. Ver. 33.	1
Who is he with voice unblest, That calls me from the bed of rest? Gray.—The Descent of Odin, Line 35.	2
’Tis the voice of the sluggard, I hear him complain: “You’ve waked me too soon—I must slumber again.” A little more sleep, and a little more slumber. Watts.—The Sluggard. Moral Songs.	3
Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise. Proverbs, Chap. vi. Ver. 6.	4
