I found the Four Quartets available online here: http://www.davidgorman.com/4Quartets/1-norton.htm

After reading Burnt Norton, I found this excellent reading by Tom O'Bedlam on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvXznmKHTnc

The words are displayed as they are read. Listening opened up depth and meaning to me that I missed the first time around.

Then I found this commentary. After reading all of these excerpts from books about Eliot, I'll reread the poem. I need all the help I can get, but I really started loving Burnt Norton by the second reading. I guess I like decoration and the language used.
