There are many time references in "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock."

Let us go then, you and I,

When the evening is spread out against the sky

Like a patient etherized upon a table;

And seeing that it was a soft October night,

Curled once about the house, and fell asleep.

And the afternoon, the evening, sleeps so peacefully!

Smoothed by long fingers,

What is the most likely reason for Prufrock's emphasis on the afternoon and evening hours?

He is comparing the daylight to his fear of being alone.

He prefers to stay home late in the day.

He prefers to go out late in the day.

He is comparing the time of day to his progressing age.
