Question

Answer the following question briefly.

Which road does the speaker choose? Why?

Answer in Brief

Solution

The poet had to come out of the dilemma as he couldn’t travel on both the roads at the same time. He left the first one for the other day. He chose the second road which had been less travelled by and ‘wanted wear’. It was equally fair, grassy and covered with yellow leaves.
