"Beginning to faint . . . on __ of daffodil sky": Tennyson (4)

I believe the answer is:

abed

(Other definitions for abed that I've seen before include "sleeping? Apparently" , "Not yet up (archaic)" , "Sleeping under covers" , "Yet to rise" , "Sleeping (archaic)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
