"When you're lying awake with a dismal headache and repose is taboo'd by anxiety I conceive you may use any language you choose to indulge in, without impropriety."
For your brain is on fire, the bedclothes conspire of usual slumber to plunder you First the counterpane goes, and uncovers your toes then the sheet slips demurely from under you.
It's amazing, more than fifteen years on from that one English lesson, and I still remember it.
