"Let us go then, you and I,".The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T. S. Eliot

Epigraph translation: from Dante's Inferno
“If I but thought that my response were made
to one perhaps returning to the world,
this tongue of flame would cease to flicker.
But since, up from these depths, no one has yet
returned alive, if what I hear is true,
I answer without fear of being shamed.”
