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

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.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

It reinforces the idea that all people, not just the speaker's father, should fight against death.

The repeated lines "Rage, Rage against the dying of the light" and "Do not go gentle into that good night" demonstrate the speaker's that everyone should fight death. In these stanzas, he is explaining how all different types of men fight death. These lines tells us that option B is just wrong. Option D is also completely wrong because there is no mention of his inability to go to his father's bedside anywhere in the poem. There is also nothing about eternal life after death so Option C is incorrect as well.

Answer 2
Answer:

It reinforces the idea that all people, not just the speaker's father, should fight against death.
