Question

do not go gentle into that good night by dylan thomas 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 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. 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. by dylan thomas, from the poems of dylan thomas, copyright ©1952 by dylan thomas. reprinted by permission of new directions publishing corp use dylan thomass poem \do not go gentle into that good night\ to answer the question. in this poem, what is the first line called, in poetic terms? (1 point) ○ stanza ○ first refrain ○ introductory line ○ villanelle

Explanation:

A stanza is a group of lines, not a single line. A villanelle is the form of the entire poem, not a line. An introductory line is not the standard poetic term here. The first line "Do not go gentle into that good night" is repeated throughout the poem, which makes it a refrain, specifically the first refrain.

Answer:

first refrain
