A professor I had in grammar school some fifteen years ago kicked my class into studying this poem and I've never forgotten it's opening line;
"Let us go then, you and I,
While the evening is spread out against the sky..."
How romantic, but there's more...
I found an original recording of Mr Eliot reading his magnum opus on YouTube. (Pay attention to the end part where he describes the waves). It's good stuff!

"...etherized like a patient on a table"
Thank you for reviving this magnificent work of literature. I am seventy-four years young. You are indeed a wonderful and gifted old writer.
