Examples of use of drowse away
1. It‘s especially compelling that the dream at the end of section one remains untold, that we are not allowed to drowse away; indeed, the work the pair is momentarily escaping is foregrounded in the lines "I dream/ not of the reaping behind us,/ or before us upon rising." Remaining outside the pair‘s blissful dreaming means we shift, as does James, to his section as the artist, back into the experience of "toil" and the great use of language: "his wealth of oil." The word "wealth" is quite perfect, conveying weight and richness, the very way we feel about the tools we use to represent life.
