To trudge, or not to trudge, that is my question
Weather ‘tis colder and these feet to suffer
In step and sliding down icy misfortune
Or to take root against the rage of winter
And by opposing end them? To wait: to sleep;
No more; and, by a sleep to say we end
The cold ache and the thousand biting winds
That flesh now baring, ‘tis in consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To lie, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub
For in that sleep of warmth what dream may come
Covered by blankets while blankets cover all
And what perchance dreams to me might fall,
In which bear whips and scorns of time,
That racks within that sleepers dark mind
The pangs of disprized love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
Of which ever my misfortunate life turns,
Shall I stay from whipping winds wielding knife
That flays away this tattered and weary life
Shall I trudge to toil again in agony
Just for the sake of this life to be.

Professor,
Sheer elegance, but my answer would be yes.
Very much enjoyed.

Thank you friend Seymour,
The question is mute, since I must have gone out
To get here to write that,
I am glad you enjoyed my little modification

To sweep; perchance to shovel; aye feet to rub;
for in that sweep steamed breath with screams may come,
when we have shoveled off this morbid toil,
May we kill Clause?

Sorry, couldn't help myself. This was alot of work Prof, and creative and appreciated.
