  And indeed there will be time
  To wonder, 'Do I dare?' and, 'Do I dare?'
  Time to turn back and descend the stair,
  With a bald spot in the middle of my hair -
  (They will say: 'How his hair is growing thin!')
  My morning coat, my collar mounting firmly to the chin,

  And indeed there will be time
  To wonder, 'Do I dare?' and, 'Do I dare?'
  Time to turn back and descend the stair,
  With a bald spot in the middle of my hair -

  Disturb the universe?
  In a minute there is time
  For decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse.

  Incipit

  Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
  Memory and desire, stirring
  Dull roots with spring rain."

  Time for you and time for me,
  And time yet for a hundred indecisions,
  And for a hundred visions and revisions,
  Before the taking of a toast and tea.

  "Gentile or Jew,
  O you who turn the wheel and look to windward,

  Would it have been worth while,
  To have bitten off the matter with a smile,
  To have squeezed the universe into a ball
  To roll it towards some overwhelming question,
  To say:"I am Lazaurus, come from the dead,
  Come back to tell you all, I shall tell you all"－
