Read the excerpt from "do not go gentle into that good night." though wise men at their end know dark is right, because their words had forked no lightning they do not go gentle into that good night. good men, the last wave by, crying how bright their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, rage, rage against the dying of the 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 into that good night. grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, rage, rage against the dying of the light. which statement best describes the effect of the repetition of "men” preceded by an adjective? it reinforces the idea that all people, not just the speaker's father, should fight against death. it emphasizes that all men, no matter what their lives have been like, should accept death when it comes. it supports the speaker's idea of an eternal life after death for people of all walks of life. it highlights the speaker's grief at being unable to come to his dying father's bedside.
