the arms of Orpheus

Did you say the arms of Orpheus? Sorry to be pedantic, but I don't think you're doing it right.

Maybe, as a medical professional you feel constrained against employing language that might permit the interpretation that you appreciate the relevant god, but, so long as it is sleep that you're after you'd be wanting the arms (or a nice timed IV drip in your arm ;) of Morpheus.

Mmmmm, Morpheus.

For getting torn apart by raving mobs of women in the throes of Dionysian abandon, then you want Orpheus. On the other hand, after that rending, his arms would certainly be more portable.
