about

One of the great works in the classical guitar repertoire, Britten's Nocturnal is a complex set of reverse variations culminating in a setting of John Dowland's "Come Heavy Sleep"

lyrics

Come, heavy sleep, the image of true death;
And close up these my weary weeping eyes:
Whose spring of tears doth stop my vital breath,
And tears my heart with sorrow's sigh swoll'n cries:
Come and possess my tired thought-worn soul,
That living dies, till thou on me be stole.
