You will now work through Dylan Thomas's " Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night" stanza by stanza, answering questions as you go. ( Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at there end know dark is right, Because their words have forked no lightning they. Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright. The frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do Not Go Gentle in That Good Night, Grave men, near death, who see with blinding light blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night, Rage, rage against the dying of the light).

Why should someone " burn and rave at close of day?" 2) The word rage can mean " anger, " but it can also mean " passion" - an outpouring of feeling. How might Thomas have been using both meaning in the poem? ( Second Stanza: 3) Though the wise men might " know" that it is time to die, the speaker says that they still fight death because " their words had forked no lightning. " What does this mean? 4) What images do you see in this stanza? (Please only answer if you can help me and be truly honest with your response. )
