Answer:

Here are the lines:

And indeed there will be time

To wonder, "Do I dare?" and, "Do I dare?"

Time to turn back and descend the stair,

With a bald spot in the middle of my hair —

Explanation:

Stream of consciousness is a continuous flow of ideas and thoughts of a person as they go through long passages of dramatic monologue and soliloquy. It expresses in words a characters thoughts, ideas, and feelings.

That moment when the character expressed self consciousness by talking about his bald spot, shows a point that is common in the stream of consciousness.
