The road not taken by Robert Frost two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and sorry I could not travel both and be one traveller. Long I stood and looked down one as far as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth and took the other as just as fair, and having perhaps the better claim. Because it was grassy and wanted wear though, as for that, the passing there had warned them really about the same, and both that morning equally lay in leaves, no step had trotted black.

Oh I kept the first for another day.

SPEAKER_01: 1:18

Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh somewhere ages and ages hence.

SPEAKER_02: 1:28

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference. The road not taken by Robert Frost.
