Summary

This quote, by Robert Frost, portrays the allure and mystery of nature, experienced through the metaphor of woods described as lovely, dark, and deep. However, the speaker acknowledges personal responsibilities and tasks that must be completed before they can rest or "sleep." This illustrates the conflict between the enchantment of nature and the demands and obligations of life, emphasizing the importance of fulfilling commitments before indulging in personal pleasures or finding tranquility. It serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between appreciating the beauty of the world and fulfilling one's responsibilities.
