vivid dreams of a long dark night

Adapting to indoor world after spending so much time outdoors is a bit hard on the body. It takes getting used to. Lohbado had insomnia all week. He finally lay down for a nap and had vivid, comical dreams. Soon the celebrations will begin. A line from Finnegans Wake summed it up: "It was a long, very long, a dark, very dark, an allburt unend, scarce endurable, and we could add mostly quite various and somenwhat stumbletumbling night." p 598 James Joyce, Finnegans Wake. New York: Penguin Books, 1999.
