You must seat yourself in a bony armchair preferably of Spanish style he wrote

In your left hand you were to clench a heavy key suspended above a plate
左手紧握悬挂盘子方沉重钥匙
Then he continued you will have merely to let yourself be progressively invaded by a serene afternoon sleep
然继续道需逐渐午宁静睡意侵袭
like the spiritual drop of anisette of your soul rising in the cube of sugar of your body
灵魂中滴茴香酒逐渐浸润身体块方糖
As you drifted off the key would slip from your fingers and clang on the plate awakening you
昏昏欲睡时候钥匙会指间滑落哐声掉盘子吵醒
He claimed the brief moment spent between wake and sleep would revive your physical and psychic being
