Message First the reading and translation of the woodblock print text, 寝る事も程ふ過さね 戒も少なしなむ中乃其一つぞや Neru koto mo hodofu sugosane Imashime mo sukunashinamu naka no sono hitotsu zo ya Sleeping is also a form of passtime At least I am not pestered, it is not even incidental Judging from the general style and from the style of the kana characters I think it is from the mid 19.c. and not older.
