This poem features men who learn too late and "grieved on its way." It describes "frail deeds" that possibly have danced "in a green bay," and words that have "forked no lightning." Another image is that of wild men that "caught and sang the sun in flight." It also compares "blind eyes," that "blaze like meteors," and the persona's father "on the sad height." It delineates images of "wise men at their end know[ing] dark is right," and asks to "curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray." Saying, "old men should burn and rave at close of day," it features the refrain, "Rage, Rage, Against the Dying Light." For ten points, identify this villanelle written for the author's father after his eyesight was failing by Dylan Thomas.
