Dün satın aldığım kitap, gerçek bir uyutucu.
- The book I bought yesterday is a real soporific.
The doctor prescribed a soporific to help him sleep.
For we are not here to understand, as perhaps some have, that an author actually falls asleep while he is writing. It is true, that readers are too apt to be so overtaken; To say the truth, these soporific parts are so many scenes of serious artfully interwoven, in order to contrast and set off the rest;.
