It portrays it as an unneeded sleep because it could cost the ship-boy his life. King Henry's conscience is never at peace through out the poem because he isn't able to come to himself to be at rest.

Ending the soliloquy with the statement "Uneasy is the head that wears a crown," proposes many inferences that after much impatience, Henry comes to the fact that he can't force or help himself to find
