Sleep Not Yet is a song cycle of life. There is still the battle with
destructive forces of nature. The horseman is out on the path of life.
The horseman pauses, gazes gently at the restless straining multitude;
then, quietly rides on. Then he is out on Watling Way, that path across
the night sky. The back from Zauzomank, where ever that is and what ever
that may mean, the spirit property that was the horseman is back and
brings with him, the flowers of spring. Then we love and honour nature,
in part, because our dear friends and relations have become part of
nature, of the green fields, of the great sky. Then, in their way, they
return with Lord York in their spiritual spring.
