  1. From an old story.

    Goodnight, sleep tight and don't let the bedbugs bite.


  2. In the late 1500's mattresses were secured on the bed frames with rope,when you pulled the ropes,the mattress tightened making the bed firmer to sleep on.

  3. my bedroom

  4. It was from Shakespearean times when mattress were held up by ropes that got pulled tight before people went to bed at night.
