Ensorcelled Hibernation is a level 2 Hexes/Ice spell which puts a monster to sleep, allowing you to flee or stab them more easily.
Effect
When Ensorcelled Hibernation is cast and passes a magic resistance check, the targeted monster goes to sleep. They may still awaken as normal if you spend time in their LOS or make noise, and will awaken if injured like any other sleeping monster. They are guaranteed to sleep for at least one turn (ie, you will have at least one opportunity to take an action with the monster asleep after casting the spell).
Ensorcelled Hibernation can't affect cold resistant creatures, and it also won't work on the undead, nonliving or plants. Berserking monsters can't be hibernated. Monsters that awaken from this spell cannot be placed in hibernation again for a few dozen turns.
Strategy
Couple this spell with Confuse when dealing with very dangerous opponents. A sleeping monster that is also confused will sleepwalk, and if it survives waking up, will probably stay confused (and thus mostly harmless) for a few more rounds.
