Sleep now, O sleep now,
O you
unquiet heart!
A voice crying "Sleep now"
Is heard in my heart.
The voice of the winter
Is heard at the door.
O sleep, for the winter
Is crying "Sleep no more."
My kiss will give peace now
And quiet to your heart --
Sleep on in peace now,
O you unquiet heart!
- James Joyce, Chamber Music.
According to Joyce this poem was "vitally the end of the book," completing the cycle in the original printing before the two additional tailpieces were added.
