Answer:

Explanation:

The speaker addresses the reason that he cannot take both roads in the third stanza of the poem. He says, in part,

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

In his mind, the speaker is "sorry [he] could not travel both" roads that he sees in the woods, and so he likes to think for a moment that he could come back and try the first of the two roads at another time, some day in the future. However, he knows "how way leads on to way;" in other words, the speaker realizes that one choice leads to another, which leads to another, and so on, so that one doesn't get a chance to come back to the original position and make the choice again. The speaker doubts that he'll ever be back again at this particular crossroads because his choice here will necessitate future choices so that he will be led far away from this one.
