read the lines from \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 phrase from the poem \do not go gentle into that good night\ contains a pun?
age, rage\
\grave men, near death\
\dying of the light\
\blaze like meteors\
A pun is a play on words that exploits multiple meanings of a term or similar - sounding words. In the phrase "Grave men, near death", "grave" has two meanings: one is related to being serious (as in a serious - minded person), and the other is related to a tomb (since the men are near death, associated with graves). Let's analyze the other options: "Rage, rage" is just a repetition for emphasis, no pun. "Dying of the light" is a metaphor for death, no pun in the phrase itself. "Blaze like meteors" is a simile, no pun.
