Here's the original:
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then 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 worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
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:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Now here's the same thing, after it's been run through quillbot.com:
It was a golden wood, and I was disappointed that two paths forked rather than one, so I stood for a long time and peered down one as far as I could to where it curved in the undergrowth;
Then I grabbed the other, thinking it was just as fair, and possibly having a stronger claim, since it was grassy and needed wear; however, in truth, the passing traffic had worn both about the same, so I didn't mind taking it.
And both of them were equally wrong that morning.
There had been no dark footsteps among the leaves.
Oh, I forgot about the first one! I'll save it for another day!
Nevertheless, knowing how one path leads to another, I began to wonder whether I should ever return.
I'll be repeating this story with a sigh sometime in the far future:
In the middle of a forest, two paths split, and I chose the one that was less frequented by, and that has made all the difference.
