Sentence
‘How
excellent
a
thing
is
sleep,’
sighed
Sancho
Panza;
‘it
wraps
a
man
round
like
a
cloak’—an
excellent
example,
by
the
way,
of
how
to
say
a
thing
concretely:
a
Jargoneer
would
have
said
that
‘among
the
beneficent
qualities
of
sleep
its
capacity
for
withdrawing
the
human
consciousness
from
the
contemplation
of
immediate
circumstances
may
perhaps
be
accounted
not
the
least
remarkable.’
How
vile
a
thing—shall
we
say?—is
the
abstract
noun!
