Somnolence

somnolence: [som-nuh-luhnts] noun the quality or state of being drowsy; sleepiness


The morning, which is the most memorable season of the day, is the awakening hour. Then there is least somnolence in us; and for an hour, at least, some part of us awakes which slumbers all the rest of the day and night.
----Henry David Thoreau
