Some relaxation is necessary to people of every degree; the head that
thinks, and the hand that labors, must have some little time to recruit
their diminished powers.
--_Gilpin._

None so little enjoy life, and are such burdens to themselves, as those
who have nothing to do. The active only have the true relish of life. He
who knows not what it is to labor, knows not what it is to enjoy. It is
exertion that renders rest delightful, and sleep sweet, and undisturbed.
